Over the past few decades, globalization and Googlization have initiated an innovation revolution more profound than any economic force since the arrival of Europeans in North America. These changes have led to advancements like the Web, social networking, and global markets. However, the benefits of this progress have not been equitably shared. While elites in Mumbai are closer to those in Manhattan, the hard-working salarymen in developed nations are not seeing increased wealth. Instead, economic elites who understand the new rules of global innovation are thriving. Meanwhile, rural women in Africa and Asia have experienced transformative changes through mobile phones and the Internet, yet middle-class and blue-collar workers in prosperous countries face economic pressure from these global realities. As this phase of the innovation revolution transitions to a more significant transformation, it is crucial for America and other wealthy societies to pursue inclusive growth to avoid being left behind. This leads to a pressing question: How can the benefits of innovation be shared more fairly? In "Need, Speed, and Greed," global correspondent Vijay V. Vaitheeswaran addresses this issue, offering insights and guidance on navigating this new landscape of innovation, empowering readers to enhance their lives and contribute positively to society.
