Book Synopsis
A large degree of success in Western civilization can be traced to six principal ideas - Christianity, optimism, science, economic growth, liberalism, and individualism. In theory, a synthesis of these ideas could provide a way for the West to recover its nerve and integrity. But in practice? This book seeks to find the answer.

Trade Review
"As I read the outline, it got better and better. The six factors are exactly right... I tried to think of others, but these are the key factors and all of them are vital." Andrew Roberts, historian "I enjoyed the well-written resume... there is certainly room for such a book." George Walden, former cabinet minister"
