Long known as "the world's only private citizen with a foreign policy," George Soros combines his razor-sharp sense of economic trends with his passionate advocacy for open societies and decency in world politics to come up with a workable, and severely critical, analysis of the Bush administration's overreaching, militaristic foreign policy.

Soros believes that this administration's plans abroad come from the same sort of "bubble" psychology that afflicted our markets in the late 1990s. They have used a real fact, our overwhelming military supremacy, to create a deluded worldview, that might makes right and that "you're either with us or against us," in the same way that the recent boom used a real fact, the growth in technology, to lead to a delusion, the "new economy."

Like the best of the books that have responded quickly to world events, The Bubble of American Supremacy has a clear, intriguing, comprehensive thesis that makes necessary, and compelling, order of our seemingly disordered world.

Wow. With all the compassion he can muster, I wonder how George Soros' passionate advocacy for open societies and decency manages to offset all the closed societies and indecency in this world. But I have neglected to recall the open and decent society of Saddam Hussein's Iraq, or the open and decent society of Afghanistan under the Taliban. Since George W. Bush went in and CRUSHED these open and decent societies, Bush has become the scourge of the earth, and must be driven from office. Then America, too, may become an open and decent society.
