Thomas Friedman's weekly columns for The New York Times offer astute commentary on a wide range of political, economic, and cultural issues. He’s won three Pulitzer prizes for this work, which has served as the basis for influential books including The World Is Flat, The Lexus and the Olive Tree, and the National Book Award-winning From Beirut to Jerusalem. His latest project, Thank You for Being Late, analyzes several forces-climate change, the speed of digital life, and a globalized economy-that increasingly define the world. By comparing the current socio-cultural landscape with that of his Minnesota childhood, Friedman identifies the skill set we will need to thrive in the coming years.
