Thank You for Being Late
Thomas Friedman is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author. In his book "Thank You For Being Late", he discusses how technology, globalization, and climate change are accelerating at unprecedented rates. He argues this "Age of Accelerations" requires people to pause and reflect instead of panicking. Friedman explores how Moore's Law, big data, cloud computing, and global markets are transforming the world. While technology provides opportunities, he stresses the need for ethics, community, and adapting policies to issues like climate change. Friedman ultimately expresses hope that societies can guide accelerations toward positive outcomes by embracing lifelong learning and values like compassion.

Thomas L. Freidman is a Pulitzer Prize-winning author and New York Times columnist. His book "Thank You for Being Late" discusses how accelerating forces like technology, globalization, and climate change are transforming our world. He argues we are experiencing a "supernova" due to exponential increases in computing power since 2007. This is reshaping work, politics, ethics, and communities. Friedman provides examples and argues that while change is difficult, humans can adapt if we slow down to understand and address the possibilities and dangers of our current historical period.
Thankyou for being late
Thomas Friedman is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of seven bestselling books. In his book "Thank You For Being Late", he discusses how three major forces - technology, globalization, and climate change - are accelerating simultaneously in the 21st century. He explains how this is creating massive changes and requiring humans to adapt much faster than ever before. While the rate of technological growth is exponential, the human ability to adapt remains linear. The book provides insights into how these forces are interacting in ways that often go unnoticed, and argues that periodically slowing down allows one to better understand the bigger picture and find a sense of clarity.

Thankyou for being late(17BCL047)
- 1. THANK YOU FOR BEING LATE AN OPTIMISTโS GUIDE TO THRIVING IN THE AGE OF ACCELERATIONS 1
- 2. AUTHOR: THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN PUBLICATION: FARRAR, SRAUS AND GIROUX, NEWYORK PUBLICATION DATE: 2016 PAGES: 486 2
- 3. AUTHORโS PROFILE Thomas Loren Friedman is an American political commentator and author. He is a three-time Pulitzer Prize winner who is a weekly columnist for The New York Times. He has written extensively on foreign affairs, global trade, the Middle East, globalization and environmental issues. He has been criticized for his staunch advocacy of the Iraq War and unregulated trade and his early support of Saudi Royal Prince Mohammed Bin Salman. 3
- 4. CONTENT The book is divided into four parts - Reflecting, Accelerating, Innovating and Anchoring. When a friend arrived late for lunch, Friedman said, "Thank You for Being Late", as it gave him time to reflect, to listen to what was taking place around him and to slow down the pace. He begins by sharing a conversation with a fellow blogger, who also happened to be working as a parking attendant. The unlikely pair ended up spending time together as Friedman helped the blogger refine his process. This led to his own deeper reflection on defining his conceptual framework that underpinned his writing. He took a year's sabbatical to research and produce this book encapsulating what he discovered. 4
- 5. REVIEW Subtitled, โAn Optimistโs Guide to Thriving in the Age of Accelerations,โ this book has a lot to say for those of who were born, and grew up, before the internet in particular. The author is a journalist and he argues that his job is to understand a complex subject, so he can help his readers understand it. He also argues that many people feel, โfearful or unmoored,โ in these changing times. Technology, globalization and climate change, he argues, are all accelerating in pace, while our society, workplaces and politics are changing. 5
- 6. REVIEW (CONT.) Of course, we have always lived in a changing world and we have to adapt to it. It is fairly obvious that Friedman preferred earlier times, wishing to take time out to reflect and pause. I agree with much of what he writes, about needing time to reflect and to live in our community and not online. The internet is a wonderful thing, but you need to take what you need from it and ignore the more unpleasant aspects. In the same way, you do not want to live your life online, becoming detached from reality. This is a sensible call to slow down, relax and live at your own speed. I do not think everything new is negative, but I would agree that it is not all positive. 6
- 7. KEY POINT OF THE BOOK The world is changing more quickly than ever. Rapidly evolving technology, global markets and climate change all imply significant accelerations to the pace of life โ and these factors are exerting a major impact on our lives. 7
