Great travel book, good for broad review

4 stars

The book busts a lot of myths about the neo-liberal approach to economics, showing how protectionism and forcing other less economically developed countries to trade "freely" allowed the dominant economies to take the lead. The whimsical comparison with foods gives it a lighter vibe to quite deep topics.
