Review "A unique take on two of the institutions that have such an impact on our daily lives. The book is full of insider's anecdotes and a must-read for anyone interested in finance or global politics." Euromoney'Shaukat Aziz has had a remarkable global career, transitioning from a glittering private sector position to becoming first finance minister, and then prime minister of his country - posts he held with real distinction and courage. His book is essential reading for anyone wanting to understand the complex interaction between domestic and foreign policy in Pakistan. Aziz addresses issues in four different continents and writes with a wealth of personal detail and colour. This is more than a memoir, it is a book with lessons for the future.' Norman Lamont, former Chancellor of the Exchequer'An essential read, this book illuminates one of the vital strategic partnerships of the 21st century. Pakistan's relationship with the United States and its allies post-9/11 provided it with a substantial tailwind and helped catalyse one of the most striking economic turnarounds of the developing world. Shaukat Aziz's experiences provide invaluable lessons today.' Nouriel Roubini, economist About the Author Shaukat Aziz served as prime minister of Pakistan between 2004 and 2007, following five years as Pakistan's finance minister and thirty years at Citibank. While in office he steered one of the biggest economic turnarounds in recent history, taking Pakistan from the brink of bankruptcy. In 2001 he was named finance minister of the year by Euromoney and The Banker magazines. Anna Mikhailova is an award-winning journalist and interviewer for The Sunday Times.
