“Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order” by Ray Dalio examines history’s most turbulent economic and political periods to reveal why the times ahead will likely be radically different from those we’ve experienced in our lifetimes. Drawing on his extensive study of global economies and markets, Dalio identifies repeating patterns and cause/effect relationships underlying major changes in wealth and power over the last 500 years. The book provides practical principles for navigating these changes, focusing on the rise and fall of major empires and the forces driving these shifts. Dalio’s insights aim to help readers understand and prepare for the future by applying timeless lessons from history.
