"Confessions of an Economic Hitman" by John Perkins is a book most of you have (or should) read. It provides a great context for what the global economy is and how it functions. It is a great read for anyone interested in doing business across borders. Here's a video of the man himself. It is a bit on the lengthy side, but enjoyable, nonetheless. Enjoy...after the jump.

Good book. Dated but good. thx. It's too bad that jobs like that don't really exist anymore (welcome anyone to prove me wrong)
surprising how popular this book has gotten
good book? are you guys joking? that book is a joke.
J, please let us know your view. I thought it is interested and going to spend some time to read it.
I was under the impression that most of this book was fabricated or embellished? There are a lot and I mean A LOT of people who say to disregard it from all camps. BUT I also hear (granted I have not read it) that it is a pretty entertaining read - think A Million Little Pieces. Fake, but entertaining.
