"In preparing this edition, we were struck by how the clichè of "living in changing times" is becoming almost ironic. The events of each day remind us that things are moving far more quickly and unpredictably than we could ever have imagined. Consider the U.S. economic turmoil brought on by the mortgage-lending crisis and the record price of crude oil, which seemingly rises independent consumption. Or think about the run-up to the 2008 U.S. presidential election. It strikes us as just a bit surreal to see the word CHANGE plastered on the speaker's podium and waved by supporters every time Barack Obama comes out to speak. Not to be outdone, Hillary Clinton's key selling point is her emphasis that she has the ability to lead change." --Preface
