The New American Militarism by Andrew J Bacevich
Provides a warning of a dangerous dual obsession that has taken hold of Americans, conservatives and liberals alike. This book examines the origins and implications of a misguided enterprise. It shows how American militarism emerged as a reaction to the Vietnam War. It urges to restore a sense of realism and a sense of proportion to US policy.
This book is important not only for the acuteness of its perceptions, but also for the identity of its authorAnatol Lieven
