RESILIENT AMERICA


"Our earth is degenerate in these latter days. There are signs that the world is speedily coming to an end. Bribery and corruption are common."
Assyrian Tablet, circa 2800 BC

In similar dismay, present-day Americans ask: is America in decline? Can we survive, compete, prosper? Can we remain a democracy?

Resilient America
An immigrant examines our nation's adaptive continuity

tells a different story. In it, as a much-traveled immigrant (and long a citizen), I compare and contrast cultures and experiences from my earlier life with those in the U.S. At a time of growing national self-doubt, I find recurrent resilience and vitality in American culture. I observe that most complaints don't stand up to thoughtful, informed critique. Rather, a centered, enduring, self-renewing nation emerges, leading to tempered optimism (and to my deepening acculturation).

About the Author, Alexander Kugushev

I have just finished "Resilient America" and think it is a terrific & inspiring book. I'm recommending it to several of my E-Mail regulars who need to be encouraged that we are not on the decline.

Short of writing a tome's-worth of appreciative comment, I only say two things: the author is a person of balance and perspicacity, and with every page I wanted to jump up and shout "Yes! Yes!"
