  <default_description>From the most highly respected analyst of foreign policy  writing today, a story of wasted opportunity and squandered prestige: a critique of the last three U.S. presidents' foreign policy. &lt;P&gt; America's most distinguished commentator on foreign policy, former National  Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski, offers a reasoned but unsparing  assessment of the last three presidential administrations' foreign policy.  Though spanning less than two decades, these administrations cover a  vitally important turning point in world history: the period in which the  United States, having emerged from the Cold War with unprecedented power  and prestige, managed to squander both in a remarkably short time. This is  a tale of decline: from the competent but conventional thinking of the  first Bush administration, to the well-intentioned self-indulgence of the  Clinton administration, to the mortgaging of America's future by the  &quot;suicidal statecraft&quot; of the second Bush administration. Brzezinski  concludes with a chapter on how America can regain its lost prestige. This  scholarly yet highly opinionated book is sure to be both controversial and  influential.</default_description>
