assimilate. You know, it's a big city. Again, my English was great. So I didn't have many problems there. But my first day in school in Chattanooga, this kid comes up to me and he says, where are you from? And I sort of hesitate because, you know, if I say Russia or Soviet Union, again, this is the South, it is the 90s, early 90s, but it's still the South. And, you know, we just came out of the Cold War. So, you know, I answer truthfully, but not fully. I say, I just arrived from Canada and the guy says, where's that? And I knew that my answer was irrelevant. Wow. That was, it was probably a good move. So let's move now to the subject of the book. As I mentioned, the title of the book is World on the Brink, How America Can Beat China in the Race for the 21st Century. The book describes a new security paradigm defined by China's rise as an economic, military, and technological power that threatens the power and authority that the United States has amassed since the end of the Cold War (7/57)
