What I Learned from the Book From Silk to Silicon
I finished reading FROM SILK TO SILICON: The Story of Globalization Through Ten Extraordinary Lives by Jeffrey E. Garten and enjoyed it.
He tells (as you might surmise) the story of how we became a globalized society through the lives and accomplishments of ten people throughout history (up until the year 2000). The book was written in 2016, with a new preface added in 2017.
He starts with Genghis Khan and goes up to Deng Xiaoping (the Chinese dictator who opened up China for world trade), with lots of interesting people in between.
Here are my biggest takeaways.
