摘要:
"Why do some small, insignificant nations go on to build mighty empires, while most do not? And why do those successful empire-builders always eventually lose their empires? Peter Turchin, a leading thinker in the field of population dynamics, presents for the first time an approach to understanding the world's great powers throughout history - with powerful implications for nations today."--BOOK JACKET.
