Goodman begins his book by describing the lavish lifestyle of the Davos elite. He writes about their private jets, their luxury yachts, and their multi-million dollar mansions. He also describes their close relationships with politicians and celebrities. Goodman argues that this elite is out of touch with the needs of ordinary people and that they are using their wealth to further their own interests at the expense of the rest of the world.

One of the most striking things about Davos Man is Goodman's use of data to support his arguments. He shows, for example, that the richest 1% of the world's population now owns more wealth than the bottom 99%. He also shows that the gap between the rich and the poor has been growing wider in recent years.

Goodman argues that the rise of the Davos elite is a threat to democracy. He writes that these billionaires are using their wealth to influence elections, buy politicians, and control the media. He also argues that they are undermining the rule of law and eroding public trust in government.

Davos Man is a timely and important book. It is a wake-up call to the dangers of unchecked wealth and power. Goodman's book is a must-read for anyone who is concerned about the future of democracy.
