Review:Whatever profession you work in, you will fall behind if you don't understand the principles that Friedman explains so well. Like From Beirut to Jerusalem, this book is extremely well-written and well-told.

My parents were incredibly poor, but the education I received laid the foundation for my future success. Robert Putnam's book shows how that that type of education, including the associated extracurricular activities that were readily available, is just not there for most poor kids today.
