The Coming Storm: Power, Conflict, and Warnings from History
Description
A sweeping work of history and geopolitical analysis, this book explores how rivalries among great powers, technological upheaval, and the struggle for global influence can create conditions for conflict. Drawing on patterns from the past, it examines the warning signs that precede moments of international crisis while considering what history can—and cannot—teach us about the present. It offers a clear-eyed look at the forces shaping an increasingly unstable world, including nationalism, economic competition, and the changing balance of power. Accessible and deeply informed, the book invites readers to think more critically about the dangers ahead and the choices that may still avert them.
