The new Asian hemisphere : the irresistable shift of global power to the east / Kishore Mahbubani - New York : Public Affairs, 2008 - x, 314 p.
The rise of Asia in the 21st Century may prove uncomfortable for the West; nevertheless it should be welcomed as the harbinger of greater prosperity and security throughout the world. History indicates that large scale changes in power distribution are often accompanied by tension and violence, but as Asia is replicating, adapting and developing what the West has already achieved there are grounds for optimism that this will not be the case. The West needs to stir outside its comfort zone and prepare to accept the inevitable changes ahead.
