| | | Annotation: Writing prior to the 2008 presidential campaign, yet aware that the field of candidates for both parties was likely to be a diverse one, the former Secretary of State under Bill Clinton offers this white paper on the key issues in foreign affairs in hopes of bringing whoever wins up to speed quickly--whether he or she is a Democrat or Republican (or, perhaps, an independent). Albright proves that, while she has learned much from her experiences, she is not stuck in the past, as she sets forth bold initiatives for meeting 21st century challenges. She lays out a game plan for U.S. foreign policy in major countries and regions, including the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America, while offering insight into leaders such as Valery Putin and Hugo Chavez. Finally, she offers advice on the daunting task of repairing the damage done to America's image in the world by the policies of George W. Bush, whom she criticized severely in her previous book, THE MIGHTY AND THE ALMIGHTY.
| Praise| "Ms. Albright offers tough and reasonable suggestions to overcome difficult and perhaps intractable problems, and this book, elegantly written with the help of a ghost, Bill Woodward, is a valuable primer on foreign policy for the general reader as well as presidential candidate." - Nicholas Wapshott 01/10/2008 "Charming and witty enough to maintain the reader's attention, Albright...does not mince words." 11/15/2007 |
