One world, ready or not Book

It took me about 15 years to finish this, which isn't the greatest commentary, particularly given that I've devoured several other books by Greider and regard him very highly. It isn't a page-turner, especially in the early going--it does feel more compelling later on. That said, it is a good book and it is very much worth reading--one result of the perverse way in which I read this is that a lot of the "just happened"/predictive elements in a late 1990s book wind up looking depressingly prescient 18 or so years after he wrote it. As I picked this back up again over the last month or two (I probably read 2/3 or 3/4 of the book in this iteration), I was really struck by how well Greider's take continues to align with the realities--mostly the grim realities--of the present-day global political economy.
