Anotace knihy

Drawing on ample comparative evidence, this book shows that America lags significantly behind other advanced countries in health care, education, crime, civil liberties, racial and ethnic equality, environmental protection, and key features of the economy, including persistent poverty. The gap extends even to some surprising areas: press freedom and democratic representation. In an election year the book is a valuable resource for assessing the challenges the nation faces. Apart from the author's powerful thesis, the book is a rich resource of up-to-date statistical data on a variety of issues, presented with neither technical obfuscation nor oversimplification.Sieber argues that a full-fledged American Myth has largely replaced the traditional American Dream. He shows how the nation can better assess and meet these challenges for the well-being of future generations.
