[The author's] range of investigation sweeps from New Left politics
to the bureaucratization of Soviet communism. Mostly, he examines
the ambivalence inherent in America's dual role as disseminator of
the technetronic revolution and principal preserver of the
international status quo. Brzezinski's optimistic conclusions may
comfort a few, but his cavalier treatment of contrary analyses,
combined with his past record of undistinguished prognostication,
can hardly leave them smug. The opinions are strong and, in
general, challenge everyone, from the concerned layman to the
practicing scholar.
