I guess we don’t spend anytime on these kinda books anymore. I don’t.
I rely on magazines & internet - Business 2.0 (my fav. out of business), Fortune, Computer Talk, then news such as BBC business news, online articles etc.
i usually read em while I travel. but then there are some that i styarted and never finished for example world is flat by friedman.
WSJ/FT i read fairly regularly, then b2.0, fast company and recently wired, like what they cover.
i am a little over fortune and business week..they dont cover trends as well, and by the time i get them theya re dated, so I did not renew subscriptuions trhis year, dont really miss them either.

I read the World is Flat, thought it was well researched though myopic that the world will be dictated by nothing but technological advances without prejudice of other factors.
"Resource wars" by Michael T. Clare is not a bad read. High level conclusions but practical ones that will unwind in the coming decades.
Was hooked on Economics by Thomas Sowell. So far appropriate for my level of economic knowledge.

I agree that is the one thing that I found a little one dimensional about the book as well.
I just finished reading tipping point and liked it, would recommend the book to people especially in product/service development and marketing and strategy world, but a good read for planners in any discipline really.
I have heard about resource wars, I may be confusing it with a different book, is this the one focusing on natural resources or human resources?
