Book synopsis

The Revenge of Geography is a summation of all of Robert D. Kaplan's provocative work and travel over the decades. It brings to life the great geographers and geopolitical thinkers of the near and distant past, explaining their theories, and then applying them to the present crises in Europe, Russia, China, the Indian Subcontinent, Turkey, Iran, and the Arab Middle East. The result is a holistic interpretation of the next cycle of conflict throughout Eurasia. He raises the European debt crisis to a whole, new geographical level. He explains why Russia is so paranoid; why Chinese power is inexorable; why India is bedeviled by its immediate neighbors; why Iran is the true pivot of Eurasia; and why Arab countries such as Syria and Iraq may not be as artificial as they seem. He accomplishes an urgent feat: making us appreciate geography as never before, even as he rejects fatalism
