(Signed Bookplate) "Green is the new red, white, and blue," says three-time Pulitzer Prize winner Thomas Friedman, foreign affairs columnist for the New York Times and author of The Lexus and the Olive Tree, Longitudes and Attitudes, and The World Is Flat. Here he illuminates two great problems. America has lost its way in recent years, Friedman posits, partly because of 9/11 and partly because of bad habits we have let build up over the last three decades. For the rest of the world, global warming, the stunning rise of the middle classes, and rapid population growth are making the world hot, flat, and crowded. Friedman argues that America has a singular opportunity to solve its big problem, and regain its technological, economic, and moral leadership role, by making tough choices and taking the lead in solving the world's big problem.
