\ Library JournalThe authors, both former ambassadors and State Department officials, present a lucid policy briefing for interested general readers. First they elegantly summarize America's successes in East Asia following World War II, and then they explain how the sun is setting on American domination and is rising for China and Japan. They explore policy alternatives for American power when regionalism is more important than individual country-to-country relations. They also ask, Does democracy count in East Asia?
