Looks like [this](http://uclaforecast.com/reviews/Leamer_FlatWorld_060221.pdf) (.pdf) is a forthcoming book review in the _Journal of Economic Literature_. It’s a tremendous read. No equations. Lots of proper economics simply and entertainingly explained.

Highly recommended and worth the 1/2 hour + it’ll take you to read.
