Politically it is somewhat out-of-date simply due to the inevitable passage of time (remember when the Iraq War and yellow cake uranium was a subject of political controversy?) However, W. Clark's macroscopic analysis of these aforementioned subjects remains not only relevant, but compelling.
Note that you may not necessarily agree with Clark's political orientation and prescriptions, though. One of the concluding chapters titled "Envisioning Progressive Global Reform" is sure to trigger red flags for those on the right, and Clark's pragmatic conservatism surely does not tune well with the left-liberal political wavelength.
Yet, I recommend this book without reservation (besides being dated) because Clark fairly and objectively describes a set of intractable geopolitical realities that simply don't care about anyone's personal politics. ( )
