Meer over het boek

"Drawing on an extraordinary range of sources, from unique conversations with leaders such as Bush, Blair and Schroder to encounters with farmers in Kansas and soldiers in Aldershot, from history, memoir and opinion polls to personal observations based on a quarter-century of travelling in Europe and the US, Timothy Garton Ash demolishes the popular claim that Americans are from Mars and Europeans are from Venus. He shows why Washington can never rule the world on its own, why the new, enlarged Europe can only realize its aspirations in a larger, transatlantic community, and why the torments of the Middle East and the developing world can only be addressed by Europeans and Americans working together."--BOOK JACKET
