    About this ebook

    * Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes.

    By reading this summary, you will discover the creation and evolution of globalization through the original destinies of ten men and women.

    You will also discover that :
    globalization is the fruit of men and women of action: entrepreneurs, politicians, explorers, navigators ;
    they were precursors in their field of practice thanks to their enlightened minds and their curiosity;
    they have each, through their discoveries, created a new period in human history, bringing a new vision of the world.

    Globalization is an ancient phenomenon, initiated with the first human migration across Africa. Indeed, at the heart of globalization is humanity. It is in this sense that Jeffrey Garten has chosen to focus on these men and women who have played a role in this great adventure that is the bringing together of men and economies.
