ANNOUNCEMENT: The Magazine's editor is currently working on a NEW BOOK that will be made available FREE to all current subscribers
The working title and subtitle are:

THE WEST AWAKENS THUNDERSTRUCK UNDER THE
ASYMMETRICAL NEW WORLD ORDER OF ITS RIVALS

HOW THE SWELLING DEPENDENCY OF THE WEST UPON VITAL FOREIGN MARKETS AND CRUCIAL FOREIGN ENERGY & CAPITAL RESERVES
PAVED THE WAY FOR THE EMERGENCE OF A LOPSIDED NEW WORLD ORDER IN WHICH ITS RIVALS ARE STRATEGICALLY ASCENDANT

This new book will trace all the important aspects of the phenomenon of the presently emerging asymmetrical new world order from its conception, to its birth, to its unavoidable impending first global test and grave crisis. All the significant developments, past, present and near-future, and their profound implications for governments, economies, markets, institutions and individuals in both West and East, and for the global order itself, are presented and analyzed. Important concepts and trends are fully illustrated in a number of new full-color graphical charts and posters. This important, powerful new book, loaded with brand new content, is a follow-up to the author's profoundly accurate and visionary book of 2006, RUSSIAN RUBICON: IMPENDING CHECKMATE OF THE WEST, and is targeted for completion late this winter.
