review 1: I expected more out of this book. I expected more data rather than anecdotes. This book read more like a congratulatory tome on an individual's career success in coining a catchy acronym than on a serious study of the importance of certain growth markets and the global implications. We all know countries with large populations and young populaces enjoy tailwinds. But what are the implications and what new insights do you have to provide? This book is written at a grade school level and does not deserve a place on a serious scholar's book shelf.
review 2: The book is a good introduction to the BRIC economies acronym, especially those who did not here of it before. The enthusiasm the auther has for the BRIC countries is big, he actually sees a big opportunity
... more even for developed economies to prosper with the growth of the growth economies of Brazil, Russia, India and China.Although i felt that after the first half of the book there were a lot of repetitions, i think the book is a good read. My next step now is to seek an opportunity in one of these BRIC economies! less
