Fifty Years of Economic Folly--And the Stark Choices Ahead
Dambisa Moyo
The bestselling author of Dead Aidtraces the decline of the western worldís economic supremacy and offers radical solutions. Acclaimed author Dambisa Moyogives a fresh insider's perspective on the erosion of Western power over the past 50 years. She examines how the West's flawed financial decisions and blinkered political and military choices have resulted in an economic recession and geopolitical seesaw that is now poised to favour emerging markets. Formerly a consultant for the World Bank and an investment banker specializing in emerging markets at Goldman Sachs, Moyois uniquely positioned to examine the errors of the US, Europe and Canada and the techniques the emerging countries used to rise on the global economic stage. How the West Was Lostreveals the myopia of the Western world but also the radical solutions that it needs to adopt in order to reassert itself as a global economic power and reverse the current economic crisis. A media star, Moyowas featured in Oprah Winfrey's power list of 20 remarkable visionaries, and Timemagazine named her as one of the world's 100 most influential people.
