Israeli historian Martin van Creveld's book explores the United States as a unique historical, social, and political phenomenon. He attributes the unique characteristics of the United States to the fundamental ideological assumptions underlying the American state. The book analyzes aspects of American life such as public administration, the economy, generational and gender relations, foreign policy, warfare, and security policy. The final chapter examines various scenarios for the future of the United States and their implications for its role in the global system. Van Creveld examines the United States from the perspective of an unbiased outsider, neither prone to admiration nor sweeping criticism. In doing so, he continues the tradition established by Alexis de Tocqueville's Democracy in America. The book combines popular writing with academic rigor and will appeal to a wide range of readers interested in learning more about the United States and its role in contemporary international relations.
