Summary
A behind-the-scenes expedition inside the world of Wal-Mart executives, suppliers, and shoppers, revealing the true and remarkably high costs of those "everyday low prices". Is the company a good thing or a bad thing? The author shows that this question doesn't begin to address what we need to know about Wal-Mart. Anyone who wants to understand the forces shaping our world today must understand the hidden reach and transformative power that is "the Wal-Mart effect."
