In Praise of Hard Industries by Fingleton
Into this Life, he's born . . . Out of necessity Sheriff Clay Dobbs encounters a completely new world in the aftermath of the nanite epidemic. He must battle both, the Turned and rogue humans, as he strives to be reunited with his missing family. After a favorable encounter in a neighboring town, Clay obtains a small edge in the fight against the Crazed, but the cost is steep - perhaps even his own life. Like a dog without a bone, Clay will travel to the ends of the earth for kith and kin.
Fingleton, Eamonn: - Eamonn Fingleton, a prescient former editor for Forbes and the Financial Times, has been monitoring East Asian economics since he met supreme leader Deng Xiaoping in 1986 as a member of a top U.S. financial delegation. The following year he predicted the Tokyo banking crash and went on in Blindside, a controversial 1995 analysis that was praised by J. K. Galbraith and Bill Clinton, to show that a heedless America was fast losing its formerly vaunted dominance in advanced manufacturing to Japan. His book In Praise of Hard Industries: Why Manufacturing, Not the Information Economy, Is the Key to Future Prosperity brilliantly anticipated the Internet stock crash of 2000. His books have been read into the U.S. Senate record and named among the ten best business books of the year by Business Week and Amazon.com.
