Mark Steyn è un autore e commentatore culturale canadese il cui lavoro si addentra spesso nella politica, nella cultura e nella società con un approccio provocatorio e non convenzionale. È noto per la sua arguzia tagliente e la sua capacità di sezionare i fenomeni sociali contemporanei. La scrittura di Steyn incoraggia i lettori a pensare in modo critico e spesso suscita dibattiti. La sua voce distintiva offre una prospettiva unica sul mondo moderno.


The best-selling author of America Alone argues that President Barack Obama is a dangerous radical who wants not only big government, but the Europeanization of the United States.
In his first major book, conservative columnist Steyn takes on the anti-Americanism that fuels both Old Europe and radical Islam. America, Steyn argues, will have to stand alone. The future, Steyn shows, belongs to the fecund and the confident. The Islamists are both, while the West--wedded to a multiculturalism that undercuts its own confidence, a welfare state that nudges it toward sloth and self-indulgence, and a childlessness that consigns it to oblivion--is looking ever more like the ruins of a civilization. Europe is almost certainly a goner. The future, if the West has one, belongs to America alone--with maybe its cousins in brave Australia. But America can survive, prosper, and defend its freedom only if it continues to believe in itself, in the sturdier virtues of self-reliance (not government), in the centrality of family, and in the conviction that our country really is the world's last best hope.--From publisher description
