It always has been. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBeneath its founding documents and defining conflicts lies a deeper contest between two forces: ONE and ZERO. ONE is order, structure, reason, realism, and the material world as it is. ZERO is liberty, disruption, imagination, idealism, and the world as it might be. Too much ONE hardens into hierarchy; too much ZERO dissolves into chaos. But held in tension, they become the engine of American life. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eAmerica: Out of Many, ONE and ZERO\u003c\/i\u003e retells the American story through this lens, tracing the push and pull from Jamestown to Puritan New England, Revolution to Constitution, Civil War to its aftermath, counterculture to the social-media age. At the center of this struggle is America's tradition of freedom, liberalism, and the fights to expand them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is a sweeping philosophical history of how competition became America's most powerful superpower: liberty and law, faith and reason, individualism and community, capitalism and reform, pluralism and belonging. Again and again, America advances not by resolving these conflicts, but by institutionalizing them, arguing through them, and transforming because of them, becoming the most creative, prosperous, and powerful nation in history. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs we navigate today's polarization, technological acceleration, and institutional distrust, the argument continues.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brett Mullin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798184471938\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/29\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 138\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.43lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.30d","brand":"Brett Mullin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49174034710783,"sku":"9798184471938","price":10.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/america-brett-mullin-9798184471938","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
