It is. If you are interested in reading pop economics then Paul Krugman's book looking at trade is probably your best bet.

If you are looking for something more academic NBER's international trade program is a good first stop.

Chang represents a fairly extreme heterodox position and one that is trivial to empirically disprove.

Edit: Also obligatory economic consensus has no relationship to economic policy point even though its only slightly related. Pop economics usually inhabits the space where something can sounds good to the untrained ear but in reality is nonsense (like Krugman on his blog whenever he is not discussing trade), books telling people "you should be angry and do something" appeal to people more then "keep calm and carry on". In reality all these books do is further entrench the already awful bad economics mindset in the general public and politicians. Economics is not particularly divisive and usually there is a clear policy for every issue (and usually not what any politician is talking about) but it serves political interests to pretend it is divisive.
