America at Risk: Threats to Liberal Self-Government in an Age of Uncertainty Book

This book presents a series of essays by experts in their respective fields. The book's introduction claims that the essays were selected due to their non-partisan nature, but a better claim would be that the book presents some non-partisan views of the problems facing the United States alongside some thinly-veiled partisan perspectives.

That being said, this book is an excellent collection of essays detailing the numerous problems facing the U.S. I felt that I learned a lot about subjects that were both new and old to me. Since it was compiled in 2009, it is fair to say that the essays are relevant to some of the current problems facing the country and well as some skeletons that we've yet to address.

I enjoyed this book for what it was, a diverse collection of the problems facing the U.S. by (occasionally unbiased) experts in their respective fields.
