Thomas Friedman
Thomas Friedman is another one of those authors who has seen a resurgance in the popularity of a book he wrote years ago. Of course, that's primarily because his most recent publication, The World is Flat, has quickly become a bestseller with its ideas about the new world being created around us.
He talks about how technology is flattening the world, bringing it closer together while changing our basic culture.
A Pulitzer-Prize winning reporter for The New York Times, Friedman specializes in international economics. He spent many years stationed in Lebanon and Israel. Those experiences prompted him to write the book that is now joining The World is Flat on the bestseller lists: From Beirut to Jerusalem.
It's a book that is especially timely given all that is occurring in that region right now.
