The Untied States of America
Neither an academic treatise nor a polemic, this book by the founding director of Harvard Business School’s Life Sciences Project asks the question: Will the increasingly polarized United States retain its makeup, or, given the right circumstances, fall apart? It’s a controversial idea, but anyone with a sense of history wouldn’t dismiss it. Sadly, Untied’s unconventional format of quotes, fragmented sentences, and odd fonts detracts from the seriousness of its message.
