Burbach and Tarbell argue that George W. Bush has fundamentally changed America's place in the world-for the worse. Hijacked by neoconservatives and the petro-military complex, the nation that once broke from an empire is swiftly becoming an empire itself. Fed by wars in Afghanistan and Iraq; a never-ending fear of terrorism; mushrooming defense expenditures; and the slow but steady erosion of civil liberties on the home front, is this empire in danger of becoming too large to survive? What are the costs-in lives at home and abroad-of failure? Who is driving these policies? And-most important of all-can Americans change direction and restore America's reputation in the world as the shining "city on the hill"?
