'Ray Dalio has a special talent for identifying the key questions
of our time. In this sweeping new book, he marshals a variety of
economic, social and political measures to trace the rise and
decline of nations. It is a serious contribution - and an
urgent warning to the West.'
*Henry Kissinger*
'An audacious, practical guide to the rise and fall of empires over
the last five hundred years of history - with important lessons for
the US and China today.'
*Graham Allison, author of Destined for War*
'Ray Dalio has a unique talent for making important and complex
issues simple. I was riveted by his descriptions of the
cause/effect relationships that drove the last five
hundred years of history and how they provide practical
guidance for dealing with what is happening now. This may well be
the most important book of the year if not the decade. A
must-read.'
*Arianna Huffington*
'When Ray Dalio talks, I listen. His new book is remarkable in its
scope - shedding new light on the biggest reasons nations win in
the global economic and political arenas, and applying it to China
and the US today. After reading this book, you probably won’t see
the world the same again.'
*Henry Paulson, former US Secretary of the Treasury*
'History is too important to leave to historians. Only Ray Dalio
would have the brilliant audacity to attempt such a synthesis of
the financial, economic and political history of the world. Agree
or disagree, Dalio’s book is essential reading to understand our
times.'
*Lawrence Summers, former US Secretary of the Treasury*
'How do we learn from history so that we don’t repeat the same
mistakes that have led to the downfall of nations? By reading Ray’s
book Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order. Ray
shows us how history can provide a template to help guide how
we might think about what comes next. And for those of us who might
shudder at reading 576 pages, he provides an ingenious highlighted
path that makes the book a shockingly easy, yet comprehensive,
read.'
*Mark Cuban*
'Ray does an astounding job of giving us an inspiring and
thought-provoking experience by looking at the rises and declines
of empires, showing how economics, culture, military prowess,
innovation, inequality and other elements interact. He leaves
us with an improved perspective for thinking about very vexing
issues such as the state of America versus China.'
*Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase*
