Critics Review

“Provocative and elegant…Complex and interesting…Fukuyama is to be applauded for posing important questions in serious and stimulating ways.” – Ronald Steel, USA Today

“Awesome…a landmark…profoundly realistic and important…supremely timely and cogent…the first book to fully fathom the depth and range of the changes now sweeping through the world.”

– George Gilder, The Washington Post Book World


“Bold, lucid, scandalously brilliant. Until now, the triumph of the West was merely a fact. Fukuyama has given it a deep and highly original meaning.”

– Charles Krauthammer


“Clearly written…Immensely ambitious…A tightly argued work of political philosophy…Fukuyama deserves to have his argument taken seriously.”

– William H. McNeill, The New York Times Book Review


“Extraordinary…Controversial…A superb book. Whether or not one accepts his thesis, he has injected serious political philosophy into the discussion of political affairs and thereby significantly enriched it.”

– Mackubin Thomas Owens, The Washington Times


“Provocative and elegant…Complex and interesting…Fukuyama is to be applauded for posing important questions in serious and stimulating ways.”
