By integrating business, geography, history, politics, and technology, Joshua Cooper Ramo addresses these questions in The Seventh Sense. Ramo implies that we are entering the Age of the Great Connection, a…

year because of terrorism. Those people have the right to live, but some people are killing other people to reach their goals. It is so sad that some people are thinking that if they killed some people, they will achieve part of their purposes. Everyone needs a safe place to live in.
