New Business Word of the Day: Chindia
ChangeThis has an excerpt from "Chindia Rising:How China and India Will Benefit Your Business," by Jagdish N. Sheth. If the excerpt provides a model for the whole book, the writing is slightly jarring, like the name 'Chindia' itself. Many of the assertions seem overstated. Sheth argues for...

How To Think Like Warren Buffett
Wouldn't we all like to make business decisions that work as well as the world's richest man's? A friendly reader noted my recent post on Irrational Economics and flagged a Marc Andreessen's discussion of a speech by Charlie Munger, Warren Buffett's right-hand man. The speech is The...

Muhammad Yunus: Capitalism is Half-Baked
In "Creating a World Without Poverty," Muhammad Yunus has written a dangerous book. Not so much for his goal – that's merely outlandish, since most people expect the poor will always be. Besides, Yunus knows how to make audacious ideas real – he created Grameen Bank to bring financial...
