520    "[An] executive summary of modern political history 
       studded with sweeping assertions and telling anecdotes."  
       — The New York Times Book Review   "Thought-
       provoking."  — Kirkus Reviews   "The Wake-Up Call   
       argues that Covid-19 has exposed not just one president's 
       shortcomings but a much more profound degeneration of 
       governance dating back long before 2016...You will read no
       more interesting book on the political consequences of the
       pandemic than this."  — Niall Ferguson, author of 
       Civilization: The West and the Rest         An urgent and 
       informed look at the challenges America and world 
       governments will face in a post Covid-19 world.   The 
       Covid-19 pandemic has revealed that governments matter 
       again, that competent leadership is the difference between
       living and dying. A few governments proved adept at 
       handling the crisis while many others failed. Are Western 
       governments healthy and strong enough to keep their 
       citizens safe from another virulent virus—and 
       protect their economies from collapse? Is global 
       leadership passing from the United States to Asia&
       #8212;and particularly China?   The Wake-Up Call addresses
       these urgent questions. Journalists and longtime 
       collaborators John Micklethwait and Adrian Wooldridge 
       identify the problems Western leaders face, and outline a 
       detailed plan to help them become more vigilant, better 
       prepared, and responsive to disruptive future events.   
       The problems that face us are enormous; as The Wake-Up 
       Call makes clear, governments around the world must re-
       engineer the way they operate to successfully meet the 
       challenges ahead.
