商品簡介
Harris, president and CEO of Science Foundation Arizona, hopes that Americans are not willing to accept a position as a second-rate nation, dwarfed in ambition by emerging countries such as China and India. He urges Americans to rediscover a shared sense of purpose and reinvigorate our nation to secure its status as a model to the world and driver of prosperity. The book begins by reviewing recent history, then delves into the historical debate on America's decline, exploring factors such as diminishing faith in government and the decrease in civic education and engagement. He emphasizes the need for educational reform, the importance of innovation, and the need for leaders who are global in outlook and not rigidly ideological. A chapter on what we can learn from Ireland draws on the Harris's experience as founding director general of Science Foundation Ireland. Harris is former head of the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Directorate of the National Science Foundation. Beschloss is a Pulitzer Prize-nominated business and economics journalist.
