A propos de cet article

Black cloth on boards with gilt monogram of author on front and titling to spine. Book is tight, square, sharp-cornered and free of any flaws or markings - book is Fine. Top edge dyed light blue. Unclipped Dust Jacket shows original price of $7.95 and has no scuffing or shelfwear - Fine as well. From the Publisher: "This is one of the most original books on political and social thought to appear in recent years. The author projects the impact of technology and electronics on the political and social values of the United States, the Soviet Union and other 'post-industrial' states. As a study of global society in transition, this seminal work is bound to elicit major controversy and will be difficult to ignore." - Foreign Affairs. ALSO - "The thrust of this challenging book is that America is the first society to move beyond the industrial age into the new "technetronic" era, and that this transition affects directly both our international and our domestic problems. Part 1 describes the impact of the scientific revolution on world affairs in general and on the Third World in particular, and exposes the ambiguous position of its principal disseminators, the US. Part 2 examines how this has effected the content, style, and format of man's political outlook on his global reality. Part 3 assesses the contemporary relevance of communism to the problems of modernity. Part 4 focuses upon the US, a society that is both a social pioneer and a guinea pig for mankind, and examines the crisis of American institutions and values during the current transition - as well as the challenge posed by the New Left. Part 5 outlines in broad terms the general direction the US might take in order to make an effective response to its foreign and domestic dilemmas." A Fine example of this important and uncommon book from Brzezinski. Purchased from a summer estate here on Mt. Desert Island, Maine where the former Sec. of Defense Brzezinski spent many summers.…
