The book explores the shift in global perception of American leadership following the September 11 attacks, detailing how the U.S. became isolated from its allies and embroiled in the costly Iraq occupation. It highlights the neglect of other emerging threats worldwide. Through a thoughtful and compelling analysis, foreign correspondent John Newhouse examines the missteps that led to this estrangement and the implications for international relations.

The commercial airline industry is one of the most volatile, dog-eat-dog enterprises in the world, and in the late 1990s, Europe’s Airbus overtook America’s Boeing as the preeminent aircraft manufacturer. However, Airbus quickly succumbed to the same complacency it once challenged, and Boeing regained its precarious place on top. Now, after years of heated battle and mismanagement, both companies face the challenge of serving burgeoning Asian markets and stiff competition from China and Japan. Combining insider knowledge with vivid prose and insight, John Newhouse delivers a riveting story of these two titans of the sky and their struggles to stay in the air.
