Can the BRICs sustain their exceptional growth? Which nations will come next? And what, for all of us, does the future hold? This book deals with these questions.
Ten years ago, Jim O'Neill made a startling prediction: that the world would no longer be run from New York, London or Tokyo. A new era was arising in which Brazil, Russia, India and China would overtake the largest Western economies. In this text the author explores this concept and considers its future. The Growth Map is Jim O'Neill's personal account of the BRICs phenomenon and how it has taken on a life of its own. He pinpoints the next set of growth engines including a universe of countries he defines as the 'Next 11'; Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, Philippines, South Korea, Turkey and Vietnam. Jim O'Neill is Chairman of Goldman Sachs Asset Management.
A Cop's Tale focuses on New York City's most violent and corrupt years, the 1960s to early 1980s. Jim O'Neil - a former NYPD cop - delivers a rare look at the brand of law enforcement that ended Frank Lucas's grip on the Harlem drug trade, his cracking open of the Black Liberation Army case, and his experience as the first cop on the scene at the Dog Day Afternoon bank robbery.
