Carlos Slim: The Power, Money, and Morality of One of the World's Richest Men - Library of Congress Shop

Carlos Slim: The Power, Money, and Morality of One of the World's Richest Men

$ 12.99

Carlos Slim is one of eight people whose combined wealth equals that of the 3.6 billion people who make up the poorest half of humanity. A businessman who dominates telecoms and global real estate, and a major shareholder of theΒ New York Times, Slim exerts a degree of power in Mexico unmatched by any politician.

The biography of Carlos Slim, one of the richest people of all time, is a case study in the ethical and psychological effects of extraordinary wealth. Not just the tale of the first man from a developing country ever to reach the top of the Forbes list of billionaires, it presents a living embodiment of the financial mentality of our time, a man who mistrusts politicians and believes the market to be the answer to everythingβ€”even corruption. In short, Slim’s story is that of Latin America’s last half century and indeed the wider world. Written by Diego Osorno. Hardcover; 336 pages.
