À propos de la quatrième de couverture

'Thomas Friedman is a one-man think tank' The Times

America has a huge problem. It faces four major challenges on which its future depends, and it is failing to meet them. In That Used to Be Us, Thomas L. Friedman, one of the world's most influential columnists, and Michael Mandelbaum, one of America's leading foreign policy thinkers, analyze those challenges - globalization, the revolution information technology, the nation's chronic deficits and its pattern of energy consumption - and spell out what needs to be done now to rediscover America's power and prowess.

'Friedman and Mandelbaum present an ambitious programme for retooling America' Financial Times

'Vigorously argued and vividly written, the book is both a blast of anger and an action programme. You will not find a more pungent diagnosis of the American disease' Evening Standard
