The Invisible Continent: Four Strategic Imperatives of the New Economy

Front Cover
Nicholas Brealey, 2000 - Business & Economics - 262 pages
During the past 15 years, civilization has changed at an unprecedented rate - it's as if a new continent has been discovered and the impetus for exploration has come from business. People with courage and curiosity are changing the way of life on the old continents irrevocably. The only difference is that the new continent - the new, interlinked, web-shaped economy of the 21st century - has no land. Yet its economic, political, social and business consequences are real.
