The author of the acclaimed New York Times best seller The Next 100 Years now focuses his geopolitical forecasting acumen on the next decade and the imminent events and challenges that will test America and the world, specifically addressing the skills that will be required by the decade’s leaders.

The next 10 years will be a time of massive transition. The wars in the Islamic world will be subsiding, and terrorism will become something we learn to live with. China will be encountering its crisis. We will be moving from a time when financial crises dominate the world to a time when labor shortages will begin to dominate. The new century will be taking shape in the next decade.

In The Next Decade, George Friedman offers listeners a pro­vocative and endlessly fascinating prognosis for the immedi­ate future. Using Machiavelli’s The Prince as a model, Friedman focuses on the world’s leaders - particularly the American president - and with his trusted geopolitical insight analyzes the complex chess game they will all have to play. The audiobook also asks how to be a good president in a decade of extraordinary challenge, and puts the world’s leaders under a microscope to explain how they will arrive at the decisions they will make - and the consequences these actions will have for us all.

I have read and listened to a lot of Friedman's writings, lectures and interviews. The forecasts and principles in this book are explained clearly and simply enough for anyone of average capacity to understand.

This book is of particular importance to VOTERS TRYING TO CHOOSE CANDIDATES as it presents what we the people should identify in a candidate even when they are lying.

I strongly believe that if a higher percentage of the public would comprehend these principles, all nations would be better prepared to help politicians do the important work and it would greatly balance the current confusion in media that has brought us to this point.

I'm giving this book to my 2 daughters as required reading. So should you.

Vital knowledge to all US Citizens

This book is excellent. Unfortunately, I found it very hard to maintain my attention on what the narrator was saying. He sounds like one of those computer programs that read text. I listened to samples of other books narrated by Bruce Turk, and they all sounded the same, as if they were read by robots.

Excellent book, awful narration

Any additional comments?

I first read The Next One Hundred Years; I thought that the exercise of trying to look so much into the future was too speculative. The Next Decade is, in my opinion, a much better book and given that some of the predictions of the author are already happening, the Russian annexation of Crimea as an example, this book is becoming scarily accurate. More than a futurist book, the author really understands geopolitics and his premise of recognizing that the US is, for all intended purposes, an empire is dead on. He explains the appropriate strategies the US would be wise to follow and gives us a glimpse of what past administrations have done to manipulate other countries into rivalries and alliances with the objective of maintaining balance, the book is not about right and wrong but about what works for maintaining a strong position in the world.

You'll end up smarter just by reading it.

An excellent Global listen

I originally rented this from Cracker Barrel. I liked it so much I bought it here and listened to it 2 more times. There is a slight liberal lean to it, but that is palatable. I learned so much, I can not even describe. The mistake of Iraq is so painfully obvious when you listen to this book.

This should be required reading for all Americans.

Good points and ideas about the near future

Agree with it or not, America is an empire. We must know our role and how to establish the right balance of power. Steeped with Machiavellian references, this book shows trends that are actually playing out (since we're 6 years into The Next Decade ). This is a good place to start your thinking of geopolitics.

Friedman provides a great basis for thinking

Real and practical insight into the world politics.

And I am looking forward to reading his other book The Next 100 Years

Simply insightful

Educational read on how the US approaches its Foreign Policy. I very much enjoyed the breakdown of key relationships.

Friedman seems quite tied to the idea of the US as an empire, which many will disagree with.

One downside of the book for me is that, the book drags a little with quite a bit of repetition.
