    When scholars write the history of the world 20 years from now, and they come to the chapter "Y2K to March 2004", what will they say was the most crucial development? The attacks on the World Trade Center on 9/11 and the Iraq war? Or the convergence of technology and events that allowed India, China, and so many other countries to become part of the global supply chain for services and manufacturing?

    Story

    I wish I had purchased the abridged version, I had to run on the ipod "faster" speed to keep from falling asleep. There is no new research in this book, it is just a collection of the author's anecdotal tales.

    Let me sum this book up for you: companies outsource and technology makes this possible with more types of jobs today than in the past. If you work in the tech sector skip this book, it is old news.
