This book explains and illuminates the decline of Western Civilization. It’s not a prediction, it’s a fact. This decline is going on under the collective noses of Americans, Europeans, and Japanese.

Why are birthrates well below replacement level? Why do western men and women choose pleasure over family? Why is it no longer ok to be a patriot, to love the country of one’s birth? Pat Buchanan succinctly explains the root of this decline and what can be done to reverse it. A must read More...

رغم أنه كتاب موجه للشعب الأمريكي على وجه الخصوص..والغربي بشكل عام..

إلا أن به الكثير من النقاط والأفكار المهمة الجديرة بالنقاش..

This book should be required reading for all American students, so that they can understand how our country has been ripped from us and how we are being deceived into the destruction of our own race.

A good look at what is destroying Western Civilization. Lack of babies, lack of boarders, lack of God are destroying the West. Discussion on population and the new "Cultural Marxism" were especially poignant. Some might be turned off by some of Mr. Buchanan's discussion on race and ethnicity. What looks on the surface to be racism is rather frank discussion about race and ethnicity. What makes it sound racist is not what he says, but rather that we have been conditioned to think t More...

I have read this numerous times or skimmed to find facts for reports or to use in debates. All my liberal friends made fun of me for reading this but I love Pat Buchanan and agree with him totally politically so I really enjoyed this book. Oh but actually in here I think he says there should be an incentive (like being paid an amount per child) for having children and I do not really think that would be a good thing for the government to do.

Highly recommended. Buchanan is pretty much a redneck to me, but at least he's fairly transparent. I found myself fascinated by and agreeing w/ large portions of this book- except when he talked about race, when he might as well have had 6 heads on his shoulders. I cannot take anyone seriously who does not acknowledge the socioeconomic and psychological damages of slavery and who discusses problems in the black community w/o reference to the history of black people in this country. It simply More...

A good book. I had not ever really given things like population and immigration a thought with respect to their impact on the world. This was one of those 'knowledge' enriching opportunities.

A great book that clearly documents that the road the West is currently on will lead to the death of the world as we know it.

Pat Buchanan is a very radical conservative and this book shows it. His viewpoints are even extreme to me and I'm a die hard Republican. He views do have some truth to them and has the facts to support them.

I would only recommend reading this book if you are already a die hard conservative like myself or else it won't be appreciated. If you are a moderate or liberal then you would probably put it down after the introduction.

يبدو أن النقاش حول الكتاب في لقاء تواقة كان ممتع
وثري ....كما وصفه البعض
يؤسفني أني لم أحضره لكن حقيقة التقرير
الذي أعدته دارين و اروى كان من الممكن أن يغنيني
عن قراءة الكتاب

Fair analysis of the decline of culture and birthrates in White countries. The writing is somewhat better than most American political books, but the issues presented are far more pressing than the ones in most political books.

Like him, hate, or just dismiss him this frightening prediction from half a decade ago is starting to look like a play book for immigrants, radicals, and disinterested Americans.

Maybe a little alarmist but worthwhile for everyone - not just conservatives.

My wife reads some Russian nationalist blogs, and one of the bloggers recommended this book to her; I read it for company. The idea is that low birth rates in Western countries and Japan, caused by contraception and the culture of consumerism, spell the death of Western, Christian and Japanese civilization, and third-world immigrants coming to the United States are destroying it. The Wikipedia article about Buchanan says that he married in 1971, and has no children. As my younger brother, born i More...
