Global California addresses an important subject: how the citizens of a state with the dimensions and power of a nation are affected by international trends, and what they can do to identify and promote their own interests in a rapidly changing world.  Abraham Lowenthal deals with thorny issues--from globalization, trade and infrastructure to immigration, environmental pollution, climate change and California’s ties with neighboring Mexico and the dynamic Asian economies. The book has been endorsed by Bill Richardson, Governor of New Mexico; George P. Schultz, Former Secretary of State and Secretary of the Treasury; Howard Berman, Chair, Committee on Foreign Affairs, US House of Representatives; Carla Hills, Chair, Hills and Company, Former US Trade Representative; Richard Fisher, President and CEO, Federal Reserve Bank, Dallas; and Jon M. Huntsman, Jr., Governor of Utah, among others.
