The Post-American World 2.0 Audiobook

" I wouldn't say that this book is the idealogical dynamite that his first was for me, but I did appreciate how he framed the US in the context of the new world we live in. It made me realize that if we don't make several important improvements as a nation then we are in danger of slipping in our unique standing. But according to Zakaria, maybe that's not such a bad thing after all. "

" Fantastic! A must-read for anyone interested in foreign policy or global affairs. "

" the rise of the rest, smart power, media does control the world, the power shifts and peace.. "

" Fareed Zakaria GPS is my favorite Sunday morning TV commentary. This new edition of his Post American World was worth a re-read as he updated to include latest news. An important book, a global view of the world. "

" Another good book club selection....need to hurry though, we meet Saturday! "

" One of the better current events non-fiction I've ever read. "

" Very nice and objective overview of todays world society. Definetely a basic knowledge everyone should understand. "

" Zakaria has many facts and can explain issues of globalization and the international economy in a simple way. However, Zakaria had many theoretical inconsistencies as he wrestles between political realism and jumping into global interdependence. "

" This is a must read.. "

" Excellent assessment of the socio-cultural and political state of the United States in 2011-2012. "

" A really interesting take from one of the leading scholars of global geo-politics and economics. A must-read today. "

" Excellent points about the rise of India and China. This book will make you think about the future. "

" Heel boeiend boek. Weer wat bijgeleerd. "

" Selection from Dean Bradford's book club "

" Great insights into the future... "

" My favorite political writer. It was good, but not his best/most insightful. There just wasn't a ton that was new/unique. However, I still love his point of view. "

" A reality check on America's position in the global world of the 21st century! "

" if you want to prepare your children for the future this book (or listen to the audio CD on a long trip)is a must. "

" Nothing too surprising if you pay attention to the news and ask "so what?" a whole lot.That said, he has some very interesting views, and for people who don't absorb media all day, may of his stories will be shocking. "

" Brilliant writing and analysis of the global economy from a brilliant but down to earth author. "

" The beginning was interesting enough but it became repetitive and boring after a while. I couldn't finish the book... and that's never a good sign (for the book) "

" Zakaria lays out the current international reality as clearly as any other analyst I have read. If you want to understand the world as it is and as it will be, this is the book to read. "

" Sadly, but not surprisingly, this book already seems a bit outdated, given everything happening in Egypt and the rest of the Middle East. Still, this is a well-written and sobering book about the trend of the world away from U.S. hegemony. We'd better get used to it! "
