Audacity of Hope : Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream

 
This title presents Barack Obama's political vision for the future of America.

Barack Obama's term as President of the United States, will dramatically change the face that his country presents to the world.

In this bestselling book, Obama discusses the importance of empathy in politics, his hopes for a different America with different policies, and how the ideals of its democracy can be renewed.

With intimacy and self-deprecating humour, Obama describes his experiences as a politician, about balancing his family life and his public vocation. His search for consensus and his respect for the democratic process inform every sentence. A senator and a lawyer, a professor and a father, a Christian and a sceptic, Barack Obama has written a book of transforming power that will inspire people the world over. It is an autobiography and covers politics.
