Reviews two books: THE RISE AND FALL OF THE GREAT POWERS (Kennedy), which describes the relationship between economic growth and military power since 1500; and THRIVING ON CHAOS (Peters), which examines business practices needed in the twenty-first century. Both works emphasize the importance of the Pacific Rim and can help teachers think about the future of social studies education. (GEA)
