Sommario/riassunto

The world is on the cusp of a global turn.  Between 1500 and 1800, the West sprinted ahead of others centers of power in Asia and the Middle East.  Europe and the United States have dominated the world since.  But today the West's preeminence is slipping away as China, India, Brazil and other emerging powers rise.
