It is where Fidel Castro raised money to overthrow Batista and where two generations of Castro's enemies have raised armies to overthrow him, so far without success. It is where the bitter opera of Cuban exile intersects with the cynicism of U.S. foreign policy. It is a city whose skyrocketing murder rate is fueled by the cocaine trade, racial discontent, and an undeclared war on the island ninety miles to the south. As Didion follows Miami's drift into a Third World capital, she also locates its position in the secret history of the Cold War, from the Bay of Pigs to the Reagan doctrine and from the Kennedy assassination to the Watergate break-in. Miami is not just a portrait of a city, but a masterly study of immigration and exile, passion, hypocrisy, and political violence.

Since 9/11, the United States has abandoned its implied foreign policy of minimal international engagement. Instead, it has undertaken one of the most ambitious and risky ventures in the history of international affairs: the quests to bring democracy to Afghanistan and Iraq. America may see itself as a reluctant empire, but the Bush administration's policies have pushed the country toward becoming the very thing it claims to fear being -- an imperial power. Is it possible for this historic gamble to succeed? Or will the relentless push for democracy sow the seeds of religious conflict, state failure, and regional instability? In "American Power, " some of the world's finest academics, journalists, and intellectuals ponder these questions and others in essays that challenge readers to think beyond the evening news. Reflecting many points of view, these essays all explore the limits and potential of American power in the Middle East.

James Risen has broken story after story on the abuses of power of the Bush administration.From warrantless wiretapping to secret financial data mining to the CIA's rogue operations, he has shown again and again that the executive branch has dangerously overreached, repudiated checks and balances on its power, and maintained secrecy even with its allies in Congress. In no small part thanks to Risen and "State of War, " the "secret history" of the Bush years has now come partially into view. In a new epilogue for the paperback edition, Risen describes the two-front war that President Bush is now fighting: at home against Congress and the Supreme Court, as his administration is increasingly reined in from its abuses; and in the Middle East, where George W. Bush's great gamble to bring a democratic revolution is failing radically. We must learn the lessons of Risen's history now, before it is too late.
