Distinguished defense policy adviser Michael Pillsbury writes his bestselling book The Hundred-Year Marathon: China's Secret Strategy to Replace America as the Global Superpower. In this book, Pillsbury writes about the past four decades that the United States has spent playing an indispensable role in helping China build their booming economy, develop their military and scientific capabilities, and finally take its place on the world stage. The United States government did this in the belief that China's rise in the global stage will bring the world diplomacy, cooperation, and free trade.

Pillsbury poses this question: "What if the 'China Dream' is to replace us, just as America replaced the British Empire, without firing a shot?" His book The Hundred-Year Marathon is an alarming wake-up call as the United States faces the greatest national security challenge of our time.
