Synopsis
The next president will face the daunting task of repairing America's core relationships and tarnished credibility after the damage caused during the past eight years. In Memo to the President, former secretary of state Madeleine Albright offers provocative ideas about how to confront the myriad challenges awaiting our newly elected commander-in-chief. Secretary Albright's advice is candid and seasoned with humor and stories from her years in office, blending lessons from the past with forward-looking suggestions about how to make full use of presidential power without repeating the excesses of the Bush administration and how to revive America's commitment to its founding ideals.

About the Author
Madeleine Albright served as America’s sixty-fourth secretary of state from 1997 to 2001. Her distinguished career also in-cludes positions at the White House, on Capitol Hill, and as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. She is a resident of Washington D.C., and Virginia.
From AudioFile
It's a plus that the former secretary of state herself narrates this discussion of the ³state of the world,² along with suggestions for future foreign policy. Though Albright's voice is not exactly mellifluous and much of the delivery is dry, her manner is congenial and she often manages to project her feelings. For instance, she gives some comments a wryly humorous turn. Her delivery is generally crisp, clear, and well paced, although occasionally awkward or stiff. It's sometimes distracting to have suggestions meant for the next president addressed directly to ³you²--unless you'll be the next president. Still, this is a solid reading of a thoughtful book.
