520 1 $a"The United States, the only nation whose power and influence are felt throughout the entire world, has a serious problem. Despite our matchless power, we are not achieving the goals that matter most: enhancing democracy and security, giving people opportunities to improve their lives, and increasing respect for human rights. In a much needed wake-up call, former Commander-in-Chief of U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) General Tony Zinni explains what has gone wrong and how the United States can effectively use its power to secure peace in the world. Drawing on his wealth of experience - as a Marine in Vietnam, commander of troops in the Middle East, and diplomatic envoy - Zinni outlines his strategy for using America's leadership position to take on disruptive forces in nations at risk before those conditions turn into crises. If our leaders heed his call, the United States is uniquely positioned to accomplish good, noble, and altruistic goals while promoting our own survival, security, and well-being. Zinni persuasively argues that we must grasp the chance to win the "battle for peace" before it is too late."--BOOK JACKET.
