“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.
