"Never in human history has a country exercised global power comparable to the United States at the end of the Second World War. No power ever lost absolute supremacy so quickly... Neither exorcism nor a piroi reflections on comparative national psychology can unravel the tangled skein formed by the technological, economic, and military upheavals and social revolutions which have taken place in the last twenty years [1948 - 1968] on a global scale. Only the unraveling of each of these phenomena can produce an explanation of the erosion of America's world supremacy... Though we must beware of over-simplification, if we seek a common denominator for the erosion of American power, we can say that after having benefited from the law of unequal development for a century, the United States is now becoming its victim." -- From the Introduction & Chapter 1
