Reformed from the twenty-five-year journey around the world, and enhanced by meetings with villagers from Rio to Beijing, entrepreneurs and presidents, Ruchir Sharma's book, The Rise and Fall of Nations, revolutionizes the "dismal science" of economics as a practical art. Condensing the thousands of factors that can shape a country's destiny into ten clear rules, Sharma explains how to detect political, economic, and social changes in real time. He shows how to read political headlines, black markets, the price of onions, and billionaire lists as signals of economic booms, busts, and protests. Against the backdrop of a post-crisis era that has overturned the world, replacing rapid growth with slow growth and political calm with revolution, this groundbreaking book serves as an entertaining field guide to understanding change in this age or any age.
