Using an international framework, Sowell analyzes how much a racial group’s economic fate is determined by the surrounding society and how much by internal patterns that follow that same group around the world.

Even though over 35 years old the substance rings true. Required reading to understand todays political non-leaders.

This is a classic, brilliant Sowell analysis marred by a soporific narrator and poor audio quality.

Classic Sowell, Poor Recording

Requires a narration do-over. Its making me focus less on the book and more to the horrible audio quality. I feel I want at least half my money back.

Great book, horrible audio

a wonderful survey of races and cultures often left out of the discussion on race and races and cultures over represented in the discussion in an objective light with critical evaluation of commonly misunderstood metrics.

eye opening

An astonishingly comprehensive and insightful book on the significance of race, culture and politics in producing economic benefits for all.

Fantastic book

A little heavy to get through. May have been easier to read the hard copy. The narration could use a little more inflection and emotion. Good information though.

Good info, needs better delivery.

An in-depth view of race and Politics overtime. I was pretty surprised by the book and feel like I learned a lot. I am going to re read part of it again because I can’t remember it all.

Learned a lot

As per Clarence's recommendation, this study sheds a whole new light on the historical view of slavery.

Would you be willing to try another one of Robert Morris’s performances?

No. The volume fluctuates from acceptable to nearly inaudible which makes it very difficult to hear. Also, there are constant, sharp, whistling "s" sounds. I've listened to many other books and the others have been fine either playing on my portable audio device with headphones and through my car's speaker system. Also, apart from the quality of the narration, this book suffers from the same problem as many of the other books I've got on audible. I keep hearing faint noises in the background. I don't know what that's about. My speculation is that it's some sort of copyright protection audio watermark, but I find it to be annoying.

Any additional comments?

The overall book is original, but the individual examples are not wholly original to Sowell's works. For example, he's talked about the phenomenon of middle-men minorities and other minorities which quickly surpassed native majorities economically (the Jews in many countries, the expatriate Chinese in SE Asia and the US, the Lebanese in Africa, Italians in Argentina, etc.) in at least a few of his other books. It wouldn't be just to consider this a criticism, as his examples are many and wide ranging in terms of geography and time. As I've read or listened to almost every other book by Sowell, I wasn't going to miss this one; I thought it was good, but not his best.

Excellent book, very poor narration quality

This book was informative and eye-opening. As usual, Dr. Sowelll delivers. Many myths are shattered and many misconceptions dispelled. Thank you Dr. Sowell for continuing to illuminate the world with your knowledge.

Thomas Sowell is a genius.
