RaveThe New York Times Book ReviewFor the most part, Thank You for Being Late is a master class in explaining. It canters along at a pace that is quick enough to permit learning without getting bogged down ... yes, the folksiness will still irk some critics...But criticizing Friedman for humanizing and boiling down big topics is like complaining that Mick Jagger used sex to sell songs: It is what he does well ... an honest, cohesive explanation for why the world is the way it is, without miracle cures or scapegoats.
