The bestselling author of The Crusades Through Arab Eyes traces how
civilizations have drifted apart throughout the 20th century and
now lack the solidarity to address global threats to humankind.
"Maalouf is a thoughtful, humane and passionate interlocutor." --
The New York Times Book Review The United States is losing its
moral credibility. The European Union is breaking apart. Africa,
the Arab world, and the Mediterranean are becoming battlefields for
various regional and global powers. Extreme forms of nationalism
are on the rise. Thus divided, humanity is unable to address global
threats to the environment and our health. How did we get here and
what is yet to come? World-renowned scholar and bestselling author
Amin Maalouf seeks to raise awareness and pursue a new human
solidarity. In Adrift, Maalouf traces how civilizations have
drifted apart throughout the 20th century, mixing personal
narrative and historical analysis to provide a warning signal for
the future.
