What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Michael O’Sullivan chronicles a ‘world turned upside down’ in this fascinating new book detailing the twenty-first century’s seismic shifts in technology, the global economy, and the balance of power. His call for a revival of democracies under siege in Britain, the US, and elsewhere is critical for the stable, productive, and peaceful world we all seek.”–Nicholas Burns, professor, Harvard University, and former US Under Secretary of State“With a generous nod to the work of previous authors and experts, the author offers a solid synthesis of prognosis and practical solutions… the concept of O’Sullivan’s Levelling presentation is fresh and thought-provoking.”–Kirkus Reviews
