About the Author

Buck Scott is a Philadelphia native, the oldest of five children of Max and Florance Scott. He and his wife Mary have been married for 52 years, and they are the parents of Mary, Sally, Cackie, Caroline, Barbara, and Bill. He graduated from Dartmouth College with a degree in International Relations, and has been continuously involved with internationally-oriented civic activities. He enlisted in the U.S. Army as a private and later was commissioned as a lieutenant in the Corps of Engineers during the Korean War. His working career was in the manufacture and sale of electrical power equipment, mainly with I-T-E Circuit Breaker Company. He was an amateur politician, and a business risk taker. Late in his career he started Electrical Energy Enterprises Inc. and Canusamex Inc. He came from a generation which became adults in the 1950's. In the United States, this group was large, well-educated, and prosperous. Now, in 2004, their preferences and understandings have achieved world-wide influence, vastly beyond the modest expectations of their youth. Scott writes about the irresistible intellectual, business, technical, political and artistic trends which are moving the world toward integration. His book is a personalized and also generalized description of these trends as they happeneed to him in his contemporaries during the past 50 years. The memoir is a sympathetic and realistic justification of globalism.
