| Summary: | "The triumph of the hybrid is no passing fashion but a deep change. As Zachary reveals, diversity defines the health and wealth of nations in the new century. The hybrid is hip, and mongrels are inheriting the Earth. The apostles of purity - and the countries they run and companies they manage - are doomed. Still hybridity and the new cosmopolitanism, while fostering wealth and a liberation from the straight and narrow, have their dangers too. Zachary offers a fresh take on how individuals, corporations and countries struggle with diversity - too much can be harmful, while too little harms growth and security."--Jacket. |
