- What if the sun truly is setting on the Western world's outsized influence over the rest of the planet?


- The receding of Western power is speeding up, shaking the ground under our feet


- In Westlessness, Dr Puri vividly demonstrates how in demographic, economic, military and cultural terms, we are hurtling into a far more diverse global future


- Many of our certainties about the present, built on centuries of massive Western global impact, are increasingly fragile. Nothing is linear and nothing is predictable.


- Untold wealth is moving from the West to the East, as nations like India and Indonesia are set to reach new heights of growth and confidence.


-China continues its ascent to the peak of the economic mountain - but are cracks appearing?.


- BUT will the Western world, (under the aegis of US global military, economic, technological and cultural power) give up its privileged position willingly?


- Are we ready, professionally and personally, to adapt to a much more diverse global future?


- Prepared or unprepared, Westlessness is essential reading for us all.
