“Gentlemen, we have run out of money. It is time to start thinking.”
—Sir Ernest Rutherford, winner of the Nobel Prize in Nuclear Physics

Time to Start Thinking is a book destined to spark debate among liberals and conservatives alike. Drawing on his decades of exceptional journalism and his connections in Washington and around the world, Luce advances a carefully constructed and controversial argument that America is losing its position at the top of the world’s pecking order. He supports this argument with his interviews with key players in politics and business, from U.S. senators, senior White House officials, Fortune 100 chief executives, and many others, including Bill Gates and Admiral Mike Mullen.

Luce’s central thesis is that America is sleepwalking into economic and geopolitical decline. In a tightly argued book, Luce turns his attention to a number of critical issues set to determine America’s future and investigates America’s dwindling options in investigates America’s dwindling options in a world where the pace is increasingly being set elsewhere.

As distressing as it is important, Time to Start Thinking presents an America in economic, social, and political crisis.
