The United States is undergoing a profound and radical transformation, all features of which point to the fact of its departure at an accelerated rate from its largely self-proclaimed status as a global hegemon. The United States has lost ground in every single category that defines the power and status of a nation in relation to its rivals. This book delves into the reasons for a catastrophic decline of the American nation, addressing a range of factors from the economic (especially energy), to cultural, technological and military factors. America's deindustrialized economy is now deeply affected by what can only be described as a massacre of her small and middle-size businesses and the implosion of the US commercial aerospace industry.

Il mondo di sopra è abitato dagli orsi e il mondo di sotto dai topi. È risaputo: i due mondi sono incompatibili e i loro popoli sono acerrimi, secolari nemici. Eppure nessuno potrà impedire a un orso e a una topina di diventare compagni inseparabili. Prima, però, dovranno affrontare mille peripezie e pericoli, sfuggire a una miriade di topi furiosi attraversando i cunicoli delle fogne, evadere da un furgone blindato della polizia, scappare su un camioncino di dolci rubato, per rifugiarsi nella loro calda e accogliente casa nel bosco, nascosta sotto una coltre di neve.
