The Post American World
 
Anyone read the book, The Post American World by Fareed Zakaria? How is it? Any good or is it garbage?

He makes some good points. I thought it was going to be just another book that bashes the U.S. and talks about the rise of South Asia and China.

But it actually points out some key missteps made by the U.S. It's worth reading for sure.

Chinese and Russian officials giggle when some American journalist asks them about the alleged fall of the American empire.

Don't waste your money.

The US is at war.

The book isn't about the fall of america, it's about other nations on the rise :2 cents:
