From Wealth to Power by Fareed Zakaria
What turns rich nations into great powers? How do wealthy countries begin extending their influence abroad? This book seeks to answer these questions by examining the most puzzling case of a rising power in modern history - that of the United States.
"[From Wealth to Power's] tightly argued thesis addresses a question sure to be revisited.. Its conclusions are both provocative and full of implications for the world today."--Walter A. McDougall, The New York Times Book Review "Mr. Zakaria persuasively illustrates [his] argument by examining America's emergence as a great power... [His] account of turn-of-the-century American diplomacy is concise and insightful."--Aaron L. Friedberg, The Wall Street Journal "A significant contribution to the study of international relations."--Choice
