Praise for Nancy Soderberg′s

The Superpower Myth

"A sensible, hard–headed, realistic alternative to the excesses of America′s Iraq–era dealings with the world."

–James Fallows, National Correspondent, The Atlantic Monthly

"One of the greatest strengths of Soderberg′s book is her insider′s account of many of the seminal events of the 1990s. Soderberg [gives us] a bird′s–eye view of such critical issues as intervention in the Balkans and Haiti and U.S. efforts to combat al Qaeda and hunt down Osama bin Laden."

–Charles A. Kupchan, The Washington Post Book World

"Does America Need a Foreign Policy? by Henry Kissinger, The Choice by Zbigniew Brzezinski, and The Superpower Myth by Nancy Soderberg–all of these authors have firsthand experience in government, and it shows. The Superpower Myth, which doubles as a memoir of Soderberg′s years in the Clinton administration, is a history told from inside meeting rooms, full of detail about how government bureaucracies actually function–and why sometimes they don′t."

–Jonathan D. Tepperman, The New York Times Book Review
