Reviews
"ÝBrzezinski's¨ analysis of East Asian realities and of the complicated U.S.-China-Japan relationship is lucid and constructive and a joy to read."
"An indisputable road map to the current geopolitical situation, and a guide on how America must conduct herself to ensure peace and stability in the future." -- Jimmy Carter
"Brzezinski's reach is breathtaking...in a masterly fashion, he takes the reader on a trip around the world in 200 pages.... A fascinating book, and a disturbing one in the best sense of the term."
"In the furor over the war on Iraq (was it justified?), the author gets back to what the debate should be about. The polemicists on both sides of this argument would be well advised to heed Mr. Brzezinski."
"No one understands the interdependence of power and principle better than Zbigniew Brzezinski." -- Jimmy Carter
"One of the most important books on U.S. foreign policy since September 11."
"The Grand Chessboard is the book we have been waiting for: a clear-eyed, tough-minded, definitive exposition of America's strategic interests in the Post-Cold War world. A masterful synthesis of historical, geographical, and political analysis, it is geostrategic thinking in the grand tradition of Bismarck." -- Samuel P. Huntington
