About This Item
Viking, 2006. Soft cover. Very Good. From the publisher description, ""Former Republican strategist Phillips takes an uncompromising view of the political coalition, led by radical religion, that is driving America to the brink of disaster. From Ancient Rome to the British Empire, Phillips demonstrates that every world-dominating power has been brought down by a related set of causes: a lethal combination of global over-reach, militant religion, resource problems, and ballooning debt. It is this same axis of ills that has come to define America's political and economic identity in the past decade. Military miscalculations in the Middle East, the surge of fundamentalist religion, the staggering national debt, the costs of U.S. oil dependence--together these factors are undermining our nation's security, solvency, and standing in the world. If left unchecked, the same forces will bring a debt-bloated, preachy, energy-starved America to its knees."" Soft cover in very good condtion. Shiny pictorial wraps in very good condition with only ghost of shelf & edge wear.462 numbered pages. Text clean & tight with no markings noted. Appears unread. Concludes with an Aferward: The Changing Republican Coalition, Acknowledgments, Notes to the Chapters, and a comprehensive Index.
