Americans are measuring the wrong war and using the wrong scoreboard. For years, the U.S. China debate has focused on headlines: tariffs, diplomacy, and who invents the next breakthrough. But national power is built on something quieter and harder to rebuild: industrial ecosystems, supply-chain chokepoints, and the ability to scale technology into mass-market reality. This book makes a controversial argument and tests it with data: the United States has already lost key dimensions of the economic, trade, and technology contest with China, and the American public does not yet grasp how far ...
