The Lexus and the Olive Tree

Paperback. English. HarperCollins. 2000. In fair condition.

A powerful account of the state of the world today – where fast food and fanaticism, shopping and civil war go hand in hand.

Half of this new, post-cold-war world is intent on building a better Lexus, on streamlining their societies and economies for the global marketplace, while the other half is locked in elemental struggles over who owns which olive tree, which strip of land.
