A special message from Jackie Salit

about:
2034: A Novel of the Next World War
By Elliot Ackerman and Admiral James Stavridis
In her message, Jackie Salit talks about the themes explored in the book:
It deals with everything from our overreliance on technology, both the ways in which it makes us vulnerable but also the ways in which it distances us and alienates us… Another really important theme of the book is the risk of over reaction, politically, militarily and the ways in which ideology or preconceived notions can affect decision making at the highest levels that have incredibly dangerous and destructive effects. And the book also deals with the question of the difference — and in some ways the conflict — between national interests and a collection of national interests versus the interests of human beings and humanity….”
