Description & Specifications

A leading national security expert, who publicly predicted Vladimir Putin's intention to launch a full-scale invasion of Ukraine months before it happened, analyzes why Chinese President Xi Jinping is preparing to seize Taiwan in the coming years and the serious risks to America and the rest of the world if this move is not prevented. In the book "World on the Brink," security expert Dmitri Alperovitch argues that we are already in the midst of Cold War II with China, and that Taiwan is the dangerous strategic point of this new conflict that risks triggering a catastrophic war between major nuclear powers, playing a role similar to what almost occurred with West Berlin during Cold War I. Analyzing the overall strategy for preventing war and maintaining the U.S.'s position as the world's leading superpower against the emerging China, Alperovitch highlights both the significant weaknesses that could hinder China from surpassing the United States and the key policies that will allow America to maintain its primacy, even as China intensifies its efforts. As Alperovitch explains, we must play to our strengths and address our weaknesses, using our influence as the strongest country on the planet to successfully manage the next Cold War. This sharp, timely book is the essential roadmap for achieving this.
