Inside the Situation Room: The Theory and Practice of Crisis Decision-Making (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780197791004)

Hillary Rodham Clinton has spent over five decades in public service as an advocate, attorney, First Lady, U.S. Senator, U.S. Secretary of State, and presidential candidate. As the 67th U.S. Secretary of State, her "smart power" approach to foreign policy repositioned American diplomacy and development for the twenty-first century. Clinton played a central role in restoring America's standing in the world, reasserting the United States as a Pacific power, imposing crippling sanctions on Iran and North Korea, responding to the Arab Awakening, negotiating a ceasefire in the Middle East, and championing human rights, democracy, and opportunities for women and girls. In her historic 2016 campaign for President of the United States, Clinton won sixty-six million votes. She is the author of eleven best-selling books, founder of the global production studio HiddenLight Productions, a producer of the Broadway musical Suffs, Chancellor of Queen's University Belfast, Professor of International and Public Affairs at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs, and Faculty Advisory Board Chair of Columbia's Institute of Global Politics.
