Adrift

America in 100 Charts

De: Scott Galloway

Narrado por: Scott Galloway

From bestselling author and NYU business school professor Scott Galloway comes an urgent examination of the future of our nation—and how we got here.

We are only just beginning to reckon with our post-pandemic future. As political extremism intensifies, the great resignation affects businesses everywhere, and supply chain issues crush bottom lines, we’re faced with daunting questions—is our democracy under threat? How will Big Tech change our lives? What does job security look like for me? America is on the brink of massive change—change that will disrupt the workings of our economy and drastically impact the financial backbone of our nation: the middle class.

In Adrift, Galloway looks to the past—from 1945 to present day—to explain just how America arrived at this precipice. Telling the story of our nation through 100 charts, Galloway demonstrates how crises such as Jim Crow, World War II, and the Stock Market Crash of 2008, as well as the escalating power of technology, an entrenched white patriarchy, and the socio-economic effects of the pandemic, created today’s perfect storm. Adrift attempts to make sense of it all, and offers Galloway’s unique take on where we’re headed and who we’ll become, touching on topics as wide-ranging as online dating to minimum wage to the American dream.

Just as in 1945 and 1980, America is once again a nation at a crossroads. This time, what will it take for our nation to keep up with the fast and violent changes to our new world?

Scott Galloway is the man!

This book was a phenomenal and fast read! The entire book was filled with detailed facts and percentages, many I was unaware of. Thank you for providing a new insight and perspective!

Prof G!

Scott at his best and most insightful. His ability to turn complex data sets into compelling stories is uncanny

The irrefutable facts

If you're capable of putting aside all partisan opinion and thought, and accept facts as facts, just get this book.

in my opinion, any politician seeking office and seeking the vote of "the middle", should have this book memorized and a plan implement change based on the contents herein.

Great story… but couldn’t find the downloadable PDFs on Audible

Great listen… wanted to find the charts and couldn’t find on Audible. Would listen again with the charts

Must listen

Data driven, compassionate and a voice of reason for our Age of NonReason , Scott Galloway has become the sage of our times.

Excellent!

A great quick read and perspective on how Scott thinks we can improve the US and make it more prosperous for the low-income and middle class. The charts are helpful visuals.

Can’t find the charts PDF

Where’s the PDF, no PDF, fifteen words you got it . I have nothing more to say till I get the PDF
This book makes a lousy audiobook.

I wish

I would love to have take his courses in college.
Smart, intelligent, and insightful. I found the spoke to be like a great college paper.

Informative

I love his research and perspective on things. He has provided diagrams to review and explains them very well. I’ve been following Scott for some time now and I may not agree with 100% of his views but he’s spot on with 95% of them, lol. Great read.
