Critics Review

“Zakaria … may have more intellectual range and insights than any other public thinker in the West.”

“Starred Review. Zakaria updates his best-selling earlier vision of world economics and politics, which foresaw the decline of American dominance but reassured us that with that decline came the rise of the rest of the world.” – Booklist“This is a relentlessly intelligent book that eschews simple-minded projections from crisis to collapse.” – Joseph Joffe - The New York Times Book Review“Zakaria … may have more intellectual range and insights than any other public thinker in the West.” – Boston Sunday Globe“A provocative and often shrewd take that opens a big picture window on the closing of the first American century and the advent of a new world.” – Michiko Kakutani - The New York Times“Fareed Zakaria is one of the most thoughtful foreign policy analysts of our day and his new book … is a must read for anyone interested in globalization—or the Presidential election.” – Bruce Nussbaum - BusinessWeek“A far-reaching analysis.” – Slate“Compelling.” – Thomas Friedman, author of The World is Flat
