A history of why great powers decline, from Spain to the United States The extent and irreversibility of US decline is becoming ever more obvious as America loses war after war and as one industry after another loses its technological edge. Lachmann explains why the United States will not be able to sustain its global dominance, and contrasts America's relatively brief period of hegemony with the Netherlands' similarly short primacy and Britain's far longer era of leadership. Decline in all those cases was not inevitable and did not respond to global capitalist cycles. Rather, decline is the product of elites' success in grabbing control over resources and governmental powers. Not only are ordinary people harmed, but also capitalists become increasingly unable to coordinate their interests and adopt policies and make investments necessary to counter economic and geopolitical competitors elsewhere in the world. Conflicts among elites and challenges by non-elites determine the timing and mold the contours of decline. Lachmann traces the transformation of US politics from an era of elite consensus to present-day paralysis combined with neoliberal plunder, explains the paradox of an American military with an unprecedented technological edge unable to subdue even the weakest enemies, and the consequences of finance's cannibalization of the US economy.

"All the members of the Long Grey Line that stretches through the years from 1802 have the cadet gray uniform in common, but individual classes develop different personalities shaped by experiences and times through which they pass. Each Academy class is different from every other ... Much of what follows is derived from interviews with the men of '62. Their contributions are typical of those made by other West Point classes. Throughout, I'll use my own observations to provide perspectives on the times through which we passed"--Introduction

Meet Martin Little — Little by name, little by fortune, and with the luck to match those two. Martin's life is not going too well. The world is against him, everything that can go wrong does… and that's all before he dies. Once he breaks into Heaven, it's all a downhill slide to Hell. His new friends are not the kind he would have picked in his righteous life on Earth, but one can't be too choosy in the afterlife. But would it be too much to ask to stay on the right side of the heavenly law? Would he be able to strike a deal with God and save himself and his friends? Would the love of his life give him a chance? Would he choose to live again or be doomed to play Roulette with Hades forever? Thoroughly British, quirky and free, this rollercoaster adventure through the heavenly realm is complete escapism, clean and fun, and a suitable read for the whole family. And to think that it all started with a cup of hot chocolate…

In the year 2068 A.D., the world has united under the fist of Altieria Corporation's wise and powerful CEO. Not without its complications... The wife of a robotics engineer turns up dead in a cheap motel, and all evidence points to a telekinetic suspect that doesn't exist to the public eye--or even the eyes of the man who sees everything. Two veteran detectives, a rebel faction, and an aggressive reporter approach the case from their own perspectives and rapidly descend into a web of lies, secrets, illegal operations, and violence. In their struggle for survival, they begin to suspect that the Altieria Corporation may somehow be involved. And if it is, how can they hope to learn the truth and expose it to a world that the Company now controls?
