"All of us face hard choices in our lives," Hillary Rodham Clinton writes at the start of this personal chronicle of years at the center of world events. "Life is about making such choices. Our choices & how we handle them shape the people we become." In the aftermath of her 2008 presidential run, she expected to return to representing New York in the US Senate. To her surprise, her former rival for the Democratic Party nomination, newly elected President Barack Obama, asked her to serve in his administration as Secretary of State. This memoir is the story of the 4 extraordinary & historic years that followed, & the hard choices that she & her colleagues confronted. Secretary Clinton & President Obama had to decide how to repair fractured alliances, wind down 2 wars, & address a global financial crisis. They faced a rising competitor in China, growing threats from Iran & North Korea, & revolutions across the Middle East. Along the way, they grappled w/ some of the toughest dilemmas of US foreign policy, especially the decision to send Americans into harm's way, from Afghanistan to Libya to the hunt for Osama bin Laden. By the end of her tenure, Secretary Clinton had visited 112 countries, traveled nearly one million miles, & gained a truly global perspective on many of the major trends reshaping the landscape of the 21st century, from economic inequality to climate change to revolutions in energy, communications, & health. Drawing on conversations w/ numerous leaders & experts, Secretary Clinton offers her views on what it will take for the US to compete & thrive in an interdependent world. She makes a passionate case for human rights & the full participation in society of women, youth, & LGBT people. An astute eyewitness to decades of social change, she distinguishes the trend-lines from the headlines & describes the progress occurring throughout the world, day after day. Secretary Clinton's descriptions of diplomatic conversations at the highest levels offer readers a master class in international relations, as does her analysis of how we can best use "smart power" to deliver security & prosperity in a rapidly changing world?one in which America remains the indispensable nation. * ABOUT THE AUTHOR: HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON is the first woman in US history to become the presidential nominee of a major political party. She served as the 67th Secretary of State after nearly four decades in public service advocating on behalf of children and families as an attorney, First Lady, and US Senator.
