He begins his book with a quote from T.S. Eliot's Four Quartets, likes Tielhard de Chardin's Phenomenology of Man better than Thomas Friedman's The World Is Flat. He studied politics, economics and philosophy at Oxford. Later he got a masters degree at MIT. He is very literate and a good writer. In January 2011, he will leave his HSBC duties to become the UK's Minister of State for Trade and Investment--at no pay.
