{"product_id":"9780143118688","title":"Bomb Power : The Modern Presidency and the National Security State","description":"\u003cp\u003eA groundbreaking examination of how the atomic bomb profoundly altered the nature of American democracy. Look out for a new book from Garry Wills, What the Qur'an Meant, coming fall 2017.  In Bomb Power, bestselling author Garry Wills presents a blistering critique of excessive executive power and official secrecy, drawing a direct line from the Manhattan Project to the usurpations of George W. Bush. He reveals how the atomic bomb transformed our nation down to its deepest constitutional roots-by dramatically increasing the power of the modern presidency and redefining the government as a national security state-leaving us in a state of continuous war alert for nearly seven decades. Bold and incisive, Bomb Power casts the history of the postwar period in a new light and sounds an alarm about the continued threat to our Constitution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48254315004139,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":49.44,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780143118688-1.jpg?v=1781607951","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9780143118688","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
