Dear Librarian, Just over 50 years ago, the launch of Sputnik galvanized our nation. We reformed science and math education, encouraged foreign languages and created new institutions like NASA. We quickly cemented our role as the world's most innovative country. We're now facing what I call a "silent Sputnik". Our innovation edge is diminishing as new competitors seem more driven and committed to change. I wrote INNOVATION NATION as a call for all Americans to do something about our waning powers. BusinessWeek called it "scary, insightful, and ultimately very useful". Visit my website, www.innovationnationbook.com, to read an excerpt. While you're there, send me an email. What do you think should be done to cement our role as "innovation nation"? All the best, John Kao
