(NOT FOR SALE IN US OR CANADA) In an Uncertain World: Tough Choices from Wall Street to Washington opens in 1995 as Robert Rubin is sworn in as the 70th Treasury Secretary of the United States, and only moments later enters into one of the biggest challenges of his time in the Cabinet: the Mexican peso crisis. Immediately, we are plunged into the thick of things along with him, given never-before-revealed insider's insight on some of the most important events in recent history. Moving on from the Mexican crises, Rubin covers his 26 years at Goldman Sachs; his instrumental role in creating NAFTA; his term as Treasury Secretary, where he was one of the principal architects of the President Clinton's balanced-budget agreement, and prevented the financial crises in Asia and Russia from contaminating the global economy, among many other things. Indeed, Rubin takes us through the whole of his life and career, from his New York City public-school days through to his current position as a Director of Citigroup, one of the largest financial institutions in the world.
