Birth of the Multinational

Dear Professor Moore:

I enjoyed reading your book "Birth of the multinational." It is a very well documented, and a scholarly book. However, I was surprised and disappointed that a scholar of your caliber had made a glaring mistake about the Persian Gulf. On numerous occasions throughout the book you had used the term "Arabian Gulf." There is no such thing as the Arabian Gulf. The gulf south of Iran is called PERSIAN GULF. I hope this was an oversight and not intentional misuse of the term. Only the ill-informed and those who succumbed to petro-money ignore the vast body of historical information about the Persian Gulf.

Best regards,

Thank you for your very kind comments and for clarifying the use of Persian Gulf. We are in the midst of finishing a new book, we will correct this mistake in the new book.

If you ever need a guest speaker please let me know I am out on the road some with the ideas from the new book, Globalization .5: "Know World" Globalization in the Time of the Roman Empire.

best, karl
