THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER 'Entertaining, acute and disarmingly
honest' Economist 'A vital guide to the new economic order' Rana
Foroohar, Time The crisis of 2008 ended the illusion of a golden
era in which many people imagined that prosperity and political
calm would continue to spread indefinitely. In a world now racked
by slowing growth and mounting unrest, how can we discern which
nations will thrive and which will fail? Shaped by prize-winning
author Ruchir Sharma's twenty-five years travelling the world, The
Rise and Fall of Nations rethinks economics as a practical art. By
narrowing down the thousands of factors that can shape a country's
future, it spells out ten clear rules for identifying the next big
winners and losers in the global economy. 'The nub of the book is
how to spot which countries are likely to succeed, and which to
fail, in this impermanent world. Sharma offers a framework of 10
rules. The more of these rules countries achieve, the more they are
likely to rise rather than fall ... it may just help you avoid
picking losers' David Smith, Sunday Times 'Amazing ... fascinating
insights ... quite simply the best guide to the global economy
today' Fareed Zakaria 'Lively and informative' Martin Wolf,
Financial Times 'As ambitious as it is well executed ... a mix of
humble pragmatism and daring decisiveness' Reuters
