Description
From a Biden administration insider, an account of how global crises were managed and a warning of what is to come.
'I would like to share with you what I saw.'
The old international order is over, and a competition is underway to determine what comes next. Inflection Point is an insider account of how the Biden administration handled global crises and what is to come under Trump and beyond. Written by a senior member of President Biden's National Security Council, this book argues there are now two Americas - one internationalist and the other America First - that will compete with each other to shape the world.
