About the book
Thomas L. Friedman and Michael Mandelbaum investigate how the United States, once the undisputed leader in innovation and global competitiveness, has lost ground to other nations. Analyzing education, infrastructure, energy policy, and governance, the authors identify the critical challenges the country faces.
But the book is not merely a pessimistic diagnosis: it offers a roadmap for recovery, arguing that the return to the top requires deep reforms across multiple areas of American society.
