The enormous blunders since committed by the US and Europe mean deference has been replaced by disquiet. Asia's concern is that the world will soon come to grief if both the US and Europe fail to make fundamental readjustments.

But there is no painless solution: only when the West gets its house in order can Asia hope for a more sustainable future"--$cProvided by publisher.
