Abstract

The end of the Cold War that resulted in a unipolar world, threw multi-pronged challenges to the eminent power-USA, and the West. This book provides an enlightening account of how opponents of the West adapted and learned to fight it. Further, it covers what the West needs to do to emerge on top of this highly complex challenge in an ever increasing complex environment.
