"This is a contrarian and eye-opening assessment of
American power. Zeihan examines how the hard rules
of geography are eroding the American commitment to
free trade; how much of the planet is aging into a mass
retirement that will enervate markets and capital supplies;
and how, against all odds, it is the ever-ravenous American
economy that—alone among the developed nations—is
rapidly approaching energy independence. Combined,
these factors are doing nothing less than overturning the
global system and ushering in a new order. He concludes
that geography will matter more than ever in a deglobalizing
world and that America’s geography is simply sublime."

"In this book, an acclaimed scholar of strategy and
strategic theory turns his attention to how warfare is
changing at a rapid pace in the twenty-first century. While
political, technological, social, and religious forces are
shaping the future of warfare, most Western armed forces
have yet to evolve significantly from the Cold War era
when they trained to resist a conventional invasion by the
Warsaw Pact. America is now the only superpower, but its
dominance is threatened by internal and external factors.
The world’s most high-tech weaponry seems helpless in
the face of determined guerrilla fighters not afraid to die for
their beliefs."
