Who Ate My Lunch‪?‬

The Digital Revolution is transforming the world at an astonishing rate. In 1990 there were only 12 million cell phone subscribers. By 2012 there were 6 billion. In 1990 there were only 2.8 million Internet users. By 2012 there were over 2.4 billion.
Globalization and the Internet swept aside geographic boundaries and allowed companies in developed countries to out-source and offshore blue-collar and white-collar jobs overseas in an effort to drive down operating costs in an increasingly competitive global market place. Then the Global Financial Crisis of 2007 unleashed financial havoc around the world and devastated the retirement savings of many Baby-Boomers.
Now China and India are keen to move up the technology chain. By 2020 they will account for 40% of all tertiary education in OECD countries, while the USA and Europe trail at 26%.
This book looks at how the world has changed, identifies the jobs most at risk, and looks at ways we can protect our jobs, incomes and savings.
