This one IS worth reading!!

I couldn't bring myself to give five stars to a book which is "just" a review of fifty (plus)other books. Review books seem like a great idea, but the problem with many of them is that they are, frankly, boring! This one is different - whilst giving an accurate overview of each book, the author brings his own style and intelligent commentary into the review, such that the reader really does go away knowing which of the books he or she does want to make time to read from cover to cover. We business executives are frantically busy trying to manage the new economy and few of us have time to get to all the background reading we know we should do. Writing the New Economy gives us a genuine shortcut, and is the kind of easy read we can pick up on a train or plane trip, and gain real personal value (well, I did!). And it's bang up to date - at least it will be for a few months before the next tranche of "e" books hits the streets! This one is a "make time to save time" book, and I for one am glad I made time for it.
