Book excerpt: "With razor-sharp clarity and a well-paced narrative, Paul Adler has written a riveting history of political conflicts over multinational corporations and economic liberalization. The book contains many memorable stories of political conflicts, from the halls of the World Health Organization in Geneva to street protests in Seattle. Deeply researched and eminently readable, the book enriches our understanding of globalization and some of its fiercest critics." "In the late twentieth century, as large corporations crossed borders and gained new powers, a network of activists arose to beat them back. In this fresh, lively book, Paul Adler tells how those global justice advocates developed tools and ideas to confront globalization, at times with startling success." Book jacket.
