  In One World, Ready or Not, a national bestseller, Wiliam Greider focuses his incomparable reportorial skills on exposing the myths and the realities of the global ecnomy in terms of human struggle. Drawing on in-depth investigations and interviews with factory workers, corporate CEOs, economists and government officials around the world, he contends that the global economy is sowing creative destruction everywhere: while making possible great accumulations of wealth, it is also reviving forms of human exploitation that characterized industry one hundred years ago. Greider warns that if the system isn't reformed it will threaten not only our middle-class lifestyles but also social peace in rich and poor countries alike.

  This text explains the dynamics of the third industrial revolution by describing a story of human struggle: of diverse peoples and nations faced with the same dangers imposed by unregulated global finance, labour and competition. The resulting picture is bleak, but Grieder points the way toward solutions based on economic fundamentalism.
