Yet globalization makes it difficult to know much about the origin of the products we buy&#8211;beyond the standard &#8220;Made in&#8221; label. So journalist and blogger Kelsey Timmerman decided to visit each of the countries and factories where his five favorite items of clothing were made and meet the workers. He knew the basics of globalized labor&#8211;the forces, processes, economics, and politics at work. But what was lost among all those facts and numbers was an understanding of the lives, personalities, hopes, and dreams of the people who made his clothes.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Kelsey is an amusing and engaging guy, and he tells a good story, so I&#8217;m sure the book will not only enlighten readers about how their consumer choices affect the world, but make you giggle.<br \/>\nAnd you know what?
