The Post-American World by Fareed Zakaria

Editorial Recommendations: "I like this book because it makes you realize the impact other countries will soon have on the global economy. It discusses how other countries like China, Brazil, India, etc. are having an impact on the global economy. The U.S. was considered the only single central player in the global economic community...but as these other countries' economies grow, the U.S. will have to learn to work with them."
