More about the book
MIGRATION: Seven out of eight newcomers to the world's richest countries arrive by well-related channels, but you couldn't know it from listening to most politicians or the press. A look at the myths and realities of migration. THE NUCLEAR AGE: New challenges such as terrorism and the rise of China are changing the nuclear landscape. But US policymakers have been too busy cleaning up after the Cold War to devise a new strategy: Here's where to start. BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS: Biological weapons are alive, they adapt, and they can potentially threaten the entire world population. Where deterrence is not enough - and how prevention may prove to be the best, and only, cure. OPEC'S OBITUARY: OPEC shook the financial markets in the 1970s. Today, no one pays it any attention for it failed to adapt to the dynamics of the global economy - and why it now lies in near ruin. AVIATION: Even as the air travel market booms, those that remain will be more powerful, and more than a match for the regulatory powers of the nation-state.
