Americas immense military power is of concern to all. Used wisely, it can preserve freedom; used unwisely, it will fracture global stability. This book argue that so long as neo-conservative radicals dominate the nations national security process fracture is more likely, resulting in Americans witnessing increasing threats. America Alone identifies clearly, and for the first time, who these people are and what their agenda is, setting out an alternative approach based on a return to the mainstream principles that have successfully guided American diplomacy for half a century.
