The Travels of a T-shirt in the Global Economy

Engrossing… (Rivoli) goes wherever the T-shirt goes , and there are surprises around
every corner… full of memorable characters and vivid scenes – Time

An engaging and illuminating saga… Rivoli follows her T-shirt along its route
but that is like saying that melville follows his whale… Her nuanced and fair
minded approach is all the more powerful for eschewing the pretense of ideological
absolutism , and her telescopic look through a single industry has all the makings of an
economics classic – The New York Time

Rarely is a business book so well written that one would gladly stay up all night to
finish it . Pietra Rivoli’s The Travels of a T-Shirt in the Global Economy is just such a
page-turner – CIO magazine

A fascinating exploration of the history , economics , and politics of world
trade … The travels of a T-Shirt in the Global Economy is a thought-provoking
yarn that exhibits the ugly , the bad , and the good of globalization , and points to the
unintended positive consequences of the clash between proponents and opponents of
free trade – Star-Telegram , Fort Worth

Part travelogue , part history ‘ and part economics . The Travels of a T-Shirt in the Global
Economy is ALL storytelling , and in the grand style . A must-read – Peter J. Dougherty
Senior Economics Editor , Princeton University Press author of Who’s Afraid of Adam Smith

A readable and evenhanded treatment of the complexities of free trade… As Rivoli
repeatedly makes clear , there is absolutely nothing free about free trade except the
slogan – San Francisco Chronicle
