"The freedom to explore and exchange - whether it's goods, ideas or people - has led to stunning achievements in science, technology and culture.

Part sweeping history and part polemic, this urgent book makes a compelling case for why an open world with an open economy is worth fighting for more than ever." -- Johan Norberg
