WORLD FOR SALE (PB)

The modern world is built on commodities - from the oil that fuels our cars to the metals that power our smartphones. We rarely stop to consider where they come from. But we should. In this book, two leading journalists lift the lid on the workings of the billionaire commodity traders who buy, hoard and sell the earth's resources. The result is an eye-opening tour through the wildest frontiers of the global economy, as well as a revelatory guide to how capitalism really works.
