O tym produkcie
Product Information
Offers a provocative and challenging thesis to conventional wisdom regarding international politics and national security: that we fail to understand the challenges and dangers and lack a mindset to cope with new 21st century realities. Ullman argues that while the dangers are not remotely as destructive as a world war, unless they are addressed, the standard of living and expectations of Americans will decline and at worst, the world will become more violent, unpredictable and chaotic.

Reviews
this is a most useful treatise of contemporary threats (it is current up to late 2014) and the so far unsuccessful efforts to stem the assaults of the four horsemen. While centered on US policy shortfalls, the book should nevertheless be read by aspiring strategists, diplomats and military thinkers; not necessarily to agree with Ullman, but to assess where the archdukes assassination has taken us in the past century and how we can visualize and articulate a more stable and peaceful future.Australian Naval Institute|9781612517995|, "Although US-centric, and understandably so, this book is refreshing in the honesty with which it critiques the US system. It stares with confidence in the mirror and recognises the bad as well as the good. At times, this work presents a bleak picture but there is plenty of sound reasoning to back it up, and solutions are offered too. It is the sort of book that you will think about, and talk about, long after you have turned the final page, and I will definitely be keeping an eye out for those new four horsemen." --Australian Defence Force Journal, "If ever there was a bad time to have lost the art of strategy, this is it. Harlan Ullman explains graphically why the West needs statesmen, not politicians. Read this book; it's compelling and chilling, in equal measure."-- GENERAL THE LORD RICHARDS OF HERTSMONCEUX GCB CBE DSO, late Chief of Defence Staff United Kingdom "Harlan Ullman is both a highly experienced observer and a great practitioner of international politics, having served as an advisor to heads of state and heads of industry. This book is a classic and is must reading for both his analysis and recommendations. I only wish governments would take his ideas for action."-- ASIF ALI ZARDARI, president of Pakistan, 2008‒13, " A Handful of Bullets is sweeping and allows the author to comment on the major issues of our time. His critique is often withering and his recommendations call for fundamental change that will be difficult to implement. But if Ullman is right about the cumulative impact of his 'Four New Horsemen of the Apocalypse' ([sic] failing government; economic despair; religious extremism; and environmental catastrophe), such fundamental reforms may be needed." --PRISM, Vol. 5, No. 3, "If ever there was a bad time to have lost the art of strategy, this is it.

This book is a classic and is must reading for both his analysis and recommendations. I only wish governments would take his ideas for action.Asif Ali Zardari president of Pakistan, 2008-13, this book represents a serious and mostly successful attempt to diagnose the causes of contemporary crises, give a clear eyed view of what potential futures exist, and give some thoughtful and thought-provoking recommendations as to how to best achieve those futures that are the most favorable to the United States and its people, and to the people of the world at large.Naval Historical Foundation, "Ullman's book is a worthwhile read, and national security experts should consider his conceptual arguments." -- Naval War College, "...this is a most useful treatise of contemporary threats (it is current up to late 2014) and the so far unsuccessful efforts to stem the assaults of the four horsemen.

But agree or disagree, every citizen who is serious about the nation's global challenges should weigh the situation and strategy assessments of this iconoclastic and readable thinker."--HuffPost Books "Ullman's book is a worthwhile read, and national security experts should consider his conceptual arguments." --Naval War College "Although US-centric, and understandably so, this book is refreshing in the honesty with which it critiques the US system.

He has specific and useful suggestions--the restructuring of U.S. Cyber Command, the intelligent use of reserve status for ships and units to provide the flexible defensive capacity, a special U.S. ambassador to NATO to reinvigorate that alliance, and discarding the U.S. Army War College and inculcating a culture of 'brain-based' solutions. This idea is worthy of consideration."--Military Review "If ever there was a bad time to have lost the art of strategy, this is it.

He then gives us innovative, provocative, and imaginative ideas for resolving them.
