Recommendation
As President Barack Obama begins his second term, foreign policy scholars at Brookings believe the time is right for America to reassert its global leadership. They provide 20 short memoranda that lay out big issues, complete with background information and concise recommendations. The subjects are either “big bets” – strategies that could be transformational for the US, the world and the president’s legacy – or “black swans” – events that nobody expects to happen but that would have devastating consequences if they did. This smart report earns stylistic points for being more internally aligned than most documents with multiple contributors. getAbstract recommends it to policy makers, global businesspeople and students of foreign affairs.

We're sorry you cancelled, and we hope to win you back. However, I want to hasten to clarify for other readers that getAbstract is completely politically neutral and works hard to present books and papers – like this one – from the full spectrum of opinions. The authors whose work we cover have a broad range of outlooks as befits our mission of helping our subscribers stay well informed across the board. Many thanks for your comment.
