In this video, Thomas Friedman, the American computer-related genius, talks about his amazing book, The World Is Flat.

In the beginning of the video, the author talks about the first chapter of his book which is known as While I Was Sleeping. Within it, he explains our newly established world giving examples including China and India. Dividing human history into three different eras, the author tells how each stage of humanity has an effect on life and how it arranged to be changed as time passed. More, the third era according to Friedman, which begins from 2000 to the present, when the world started flattening as peoples started managing globalization to a great extend, has greatly accelerated business and greatly impacted industry.

In the middle of the video, Mr. Friedman reminds us about the second chapter of his book, The Flatteners. Briefly told, he talks about the ten flatteners of the second he mentioned in the second chapter. For example, supply chaining, in-forming and insourcing. He reminds of the flatteners of how they change the world and what profound impact they have on the daily life as a whole.


In the end of the video, however, Thomas Friedman mentions his third chapter of the book, The Triple of Convergence. In brief, I did not really get what this chapter really about due to some problems!


• Absolutely, Iraq can follow the steps the other nations had already followed to expand their abilities vis-à-vis technology and the ocean of computers and the internet. It, of course, gives the chance to Iraq to be one of the leading nations in the field of technology. However, it takes time, money, expertise, tolerance and patience. It, surly, can be applied for Iraq if the government wants to eliminate corruption and poverty.
