The 27 Trends Defining the Future of the Global Economy
Wiley, 2021
¿De qué se trata?
If a picture is worth a thousand words, so is a sharp data visualization.
Recommendation
Global economies and societies are changing quickly – so quickly, in fact, that the standard format of a book filled with words might not help readers make sense of it all. That’s the idea behind this work, which compiles hundreds of data visualizations about more than two dozen broad topics of interest to managers, employees and investors. Jeff Desjardins runs a media site that creates graphics that are at once elegant, dynamic and illuminating, and they illustrate a variety of trends, including population shifts, climate change and wealth inequality. Consider this a graphic novel about global economics.
