A Visionary Nation: Four Centuries of American Dreams and What Lies Ahead
ISBN: 9780060084424 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

Just as the Puritan vision of a city on a hill was supplanted by the Founding Fathers' vision of individuality, just as the expansive vision of a government-led Great Society was eclipsed by the New Economy of the 1990s, so too is the New Economy being replaced by what Karabell contends will be a period when community and spirituality occupy center stage.
