For Jones (a retired US senior Foreign Service officer) and Kilgour (a former Canadian Secretary of State for Latin America and Africa and Secretary of State for Asia-Pacific), Canada and the United States can be seen as "two bio-social/cultural Petri dishes into which the problems of the new century are being introduced for observation." They believe that comparing the Canadian and American approaches to these problems will allow a better understanding of the two countries, their relationship, and perhaps better ways to address the emerging challenges of the 21st century. They carry out this task in chapters discussing national identity, democracy, economics, culture, education, religion, health care, crime, military defense, international relations, and human rights.
