Fukuyama remains as prominent as ever
*FT*
Elegant, honest, persuasive ... he attacks his former academic
allies and friends ... with a relentless and awesome force
*Glasgow Herald*
It should be read by every democrat - and every dictator.
*Sunday Times*
Thoroughly worthwhile ... [the book] will give many thoughtful
people a sensible path forward
*Spectator*
This is that rare work of history with up-to-the-minute
relevance
*Publishers Weekly (starred review)*
No longer the neocon of former days, Fukuyama seems a more flexible
and discerning thinker, and as always, his mastery of the
literature is daunting. This exceptional book should be in every
library
*Library Journal*
Sweeping, provocative big-picture study of humankind's political
impulses ... Endlessly interesting - reminiscent at turns of Oswald
Spengler, Stanislaw Andreski and Samuel Huntington, though less
pessimistic and much better written
*Kirkus Reviews (starred)*
Societies that learn from mistakes rather than punish them have an
inherent resilience...It is confirmed by this ambitious work.
*The Times*
