Americas and Beyond..

28 July 2006 188 views No Comment

Most of the authors of management books (even non-management, fiction, etc), think their book will be bought and read only in the Americas or by Americans living outside the United States. So many references and notes that assumes the reader is sitting somewhere in North America or a visiting American to some other geography.

I still wonder why these well read men are’t waking up to the fact that their books aren’t confined to the American geography only. Despite of titling the book as ‘The World is Flat’, Tom Friedman has, in certain areas assumes the reader either is in America or an American - Incidently, Bangalore and Shaghai are one of the frequently repeated words in the book. However, one can’t get over this book is written for Americans flavor.
