Winner Take All: China's Race For Resources and What It Means For Us

Autor Dambisa Moyo
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 feb 2013
Our planet's resources are running out. The media bombards us with constant warnings of impending shortages of fossil fuels, minerals, arable land,and water and the political Armageddon that will result as insatiable global demand far outstrips supply. But how true is this picture?
InWinner Take All, Dambisa Moyo cuts through the misconceptions and noise surrounding resource scarcity with a penetrating analysis of what really is at stake. China, Moyo reveals, has embarked on one of the greatest commodity rushes in history. Tracing its breathtaking quest for resources - from Africa to Latin America, North America to Europe - she examines the impact it is having on us all, and its profound implications for our future.

Recenzii

If Moyo's calculations are correct, we are in big trouble - which makes the central premise of her book all the more arresting...It's not hard to see why Moyo is such a hit as a public intellectual
Written to clarify important global questions, this book deserves a wide audience
WithWinner Take All, Dambisa Moyo offers a timely and provocative answer to two crucial questions: How are China's leaders rushing to meet their country's exploding demand for energy, and what does this mean for the rest of us? It's a recipe for conflict-and at a crucial moment for the future of the global economy
For anyone longing to make sense of tectonic, eco-political shifts occurring in the commodities market,Winner Takes Allis a fascinating and important book. By focusing her razor-sharp mind on China's central role in the new commodities rush, Moyo sheds light on and makes sense of a profound and dramatic moment in our history. Her book is a must-read
[Praise forHow The West Was Lost] Moyo is a very serious lady indeed
