...energy crisis, and we need them fast. You can't get those solutions from politics. You have to get them from scientists and engineers. So the value of science to the nation, I think, is currently being driven by our economic needs. But what people need to keep sight of is that the bigger value of science and technology to a nation is so that you can thrive as a nation going forward, so that you can thrive five years out, 10 years out, 20 years out. And investments in research and development today pay dividends on those time scales...
Sanger's behind-the-scenes account of the Bush Administration's foreign policy is laced with scoops and secret conversations about a world spinning out of America's control. He tracks scientists in Pakistan trying to keep nuclear material out of al-Qaeda's hands; commandos at Fort Bragg blasting a Cabinet official for the lack of a strategy to get Osama bin Laden; and Condoleezza Rice telling George W.

Bush once said America shouldn't tell the world...
...prosperity are bound up with the security and prosperity of people across the globe. A collective-security agenda would start with global warming, the ultimate we're-all-in-it-together planetary threat. It might move from there to international financial regulation, so countries can better work together to keep world capitalism from running off the rails. Next might be a new nuclear compact, in which the current nuclear powers begin to disarm while wannabes agree to tighter inspections in return for better access to civilian nuclear power...
