Title: Essential reading for policymakers
Product review: Robbie Burns prayed: "Oh wad some power the giftie gie us to see oursel's as others see us!" For Americans with an interest in their place in the world at the start of the second American Century, this book is a good starting point. The book is subtitled 'American Unilateralism and the Failure of Good Intentions', which is a good description of his thesis and conclusion as he enumerates the policies that are causing frustration among America's allies, and exacerbating mistrust and hatred among the rest. No bleeding heart liberal, Prestowitz is a former member of the Reagan administration who has traveled extensively and come back with a message from the rest of the world - you can't go it alone.
