Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The Pentagon's New Map was one of the most talked-about books of the year - a fundamental reexamination of war and peace in the post-9/11 world that provided a compelling vision of the future. Now, senior advisor and military analyst Thomas P.M. Barnett explores our possible long- and short-term relations with such nations and regions as Iran, Iraq, and the Middle East, China and North Korea, Latin America and Africa, while outlining the strategies to pursue, the entities to create, and the pitfalls to overcome. If his first book was "a compelling framework for confronting twenty-first century problems" (Business Week), Barnett's new book is something more - a powerful road map through a chaotic and uncertain world to "a future worth creating."

Synopsis:

Military analyst Barnett provides a fundamental reexamination of war and peace in the post 9/11 world and a compelling vision of the future. Paying particular attention to the Middle and Far East, Africa, and Latin America, he outlines strategies to pursue and pitfalls to avoid.

About the Author
