Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Signed First Edition, First Printing of the autobiography of one of the most important individuals in American government and finance in the late 20th century -- Robert Rubin, U.S. Treasury secretary under President Bill Clinton and top Wall Street power broker at Goldman Sachs and Citigroup. Rubin was lionized early in the post Clinton years as the steady hand at Treasury who presided over a booming economy and a federal balance operating in the black rather than deep red, a Wall Street superstar and mentor of a coming generation of steady hands and superstars such as Lawrence Summers. In some circles, Rubin's reputation tanked with the world economy in 2008 and 2009. Rubin was blamed massive bungling at Citigroup, disingenuously papering over his role in Citigroup's troubles, setting the stage for the economic implosion with federal policies that encourage reckless behavior and spawning other favorite targets of blame-gamers such as Lawrence Summers. An uncertain world, indeed. This copy is signed by Robert Rubin on a bookplate on the front endpaper. 427 pages, illustrated. The dust jacket has light edge wear. The book has a faint pipe tobacco aroma. Signed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. As new condition black boards, black spine with gold spine lettering contained in an as new condition non price-clipped photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; A Note From the Author; Acknowledgments; Index and About the Authors. Signed by theauthor, Robert E. Rubin, with thin black Sharpie at the center of the full title page. "It's a hell of a book. As Secretary of the Treasury, Bob Rubin ranked with the best. This drama-packed account of his years on the job should be read by all who are interested in what happens when politics and economics intersect." -- Warren Buffett. "Robert Rubin is one of the most brilliant and honorable wise men of our era, and he has produced an extraordinary book filled with tales and insights about his relationships with such key players as Alan Greenspan, Larry Summers, and President Bil Clinton. This is destined to be one of the most important books, as well as one of the most enjoyable and enlightening, published in our time." -- Walter Isaacson. "When historians look back on the 1990s, they will almost certainly ask how the greatest economic expansion in American history happened. Robert Rubin's forthright and fascinating memoir will be the place to begin. With the meticulousness of a scholar and an appealing lack of vanity, Rubin has written the kind of book that important figures in history should write but seldom do." -- Michael Beschloss. "Robert Rubin was sworn in as the seventieth U.S. Secretary of the Treasury in January 1995 in a brisk ceremony attended only by his wife and a few colleagues. As soon as the ceremony was over, he began an emergency meeting with President Bill Clinton on the financial crisis in Mexico. This was not only a harbinger of things to come during what would prove to be a rocky period in the global economy; it also captued the essence of Rubin himself -- short on formality, quick to get into the nitty-gritty. From his early years in the storied arbitrage department at Goldman Sachs to his current position as chairman of the executive committee of Citigroup, Robert Rubin has been a major figure at the center of the American financial system. He was a key player in the longest economic expansion in U.S. history. With In an Uncertain World, Rubin offers a shrewd, keen analysis of some of the most important events in recent American history and presents a clear, consistent approach to thinking about markets and dealing with the new risks of the global economy. Rubin's fundamental philosophy is that nothing is provably certain. Probabilistic thinking has guided his career in both business and government. We see that discipline at work in meetings with President Clinton and Hillary Clinton, Chinese premier Zhu Rongji, Alan Greenspan, Lawrence Summers, Newt Gingrich, Sanford Weill, and the late Daniel Patrick Moynihan. We see Rubin apply it time and again while facing financial crises in Asia, Russia, and Brazil; the federal government shutdown; the rise and fall of the stock market; the challenges of the post-September 11 world; the ongoing struggle over fiscal policy; and many other momentous economic and political events. With a compelling and candid voice and a sharp eye for detail, Rubin portrays the daily life of the White House -- confronting matters both mighty and mundane -- as astutely as he examines the challenges that lie ahead for the nation. Part political memoir, part prescriptive economic analysis, and part personal look at business problems, In an Uncertain World is a deep examination of Washington and Wall Street by a figure who for three decades has been at the center of both worlds." -- from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

First Edition Limited to 2500 copies. This special copy has a card signed in ink by actor Barry Newman, star of the film Vanishing Point, affixed to the the half-title. Hardbound in full color photographic boards. 572 pages 9.5 x 6.75 inches. As described by the publishers ÒFilm director Richard C. SarafianÕs Vanishing Point (20th Century Fox, 1971) is the ultimate analog car chase movie with that hard-to-pin-down something extra. Written by renowned Cuban novelist Guillermo Cabrera Infante under a pseudonym (Guillermo Cain), itÕs nominally the saga of a speedaddled Vietnam vet existentially on the lam in a Dodge Challenger. ItÕs also a modern Western, a dystopian allegory of our surveillance society, and a love letter to the muscle car, all rolled into one. No surprise itÕs become a cult classic, adored and paid homage to by Quentin Tarantino, Steven Spielberg, Bruce Springsteen, Richard Prince, Alberto Moravia, Guns ÔnÕ Roses, Primal Scream, Audioslave, and countless others. Now, Robert M. RubinÕs Vanishing Point Forever brings together everything there is. 572 pages include a complete reproduction of the filmÕs final shooting script, pages from Cabrera InfanteÕs early drafts, his own location scouting photos (never seen before), and a gold mine of production and publicity stills, ephemera, excerpts, reflections and essays. Rubin details how the movie came to life Ñ from stars Barry Newman, Cleavon Little, and Charlotte Rampling (so enigmatic she was cut from the main release); to the groundbreaking stunts coordinated by Hollywood legend Carey Loftin; to its unique, remarkable half-life. In the words of Sarafian, the film just ÔwouldnÕt die.Õ RubinÕs tribute also includes assembled insights, interviews and quotes from a broad range of essential voices, including Cabrera Infante, Prince, Moravia, J. Hoberman, cinematographer and director Janusz Kaminski, Raymond Chandler, Jean Baudrillard, Jack Kerouac, Cormac McCarthy, Thomas Pynchon, Lucy Sante, race driver Sam Posey, and many more.Ó.
