Hardcover (Large Print) Talese's lapidary style and impeccable reporting
standards have endured far better than the work of some of his more histrionic
New Journalism contemporaries, but he has also known failures: long periods
of struggle and silence, abandoned stories and books. Much of his memoir
is about frustration and dead ends.

The Post-American World by
Fareed Zakaria (Author)
(Hardcover - May 5, 2008)
Others:
Audio CD ~ "This is not a book about the decline of America, but rather about the rise
of everyone else." So begins
Fareed Zakaria's important new work on the era we
are now entering. Following on the success of his best-selling
The Future of Freedom, Zakaria describes with equal prescience a world in which the United
States will no longer dominate the global economy, orchestrate geopolitics, or
overwhelm cultures. He sees the "rise of the rest"—the growth of countries like
China, India, Brazil, Russia, and many others—as the great story of our time,
and one that will reshape the world. The tallest buildings, biggest dams,
largest-selling movies, and most advanced cell phones are all being built
outside the United States. This economic growth is producing political
confidence, national pride, and potentially international problems. How should
the United States understand and thrive in this rapidly changing international
climate? What does it mean to live in a truly global era? Zakaria answers these
questions with his customary lucidity, insight, and imagination. |
