mean for global business?

analysts, is your guide through the challenges and opportunities
for emerging markets and those doing business in them.

This magisterial book looks in detail at China and India -
the big players - and also less hyped but crucial markets,
including Eastern European countries and Turkey. Magnus takes in
his sweep everything from commodity prices to climate change, and
from comparative advantage to demographic to provide a compelling
analysis of what the future might look like - not just for
emerging markets, but for investors, businesses and economies
everywhere.
