From book sleeve: "In A Global Life, Wolfensohn tell his remarkable life story, beginning with his boyhood in Australia. A man of surpassing imagination and drive, he became an Olympic fencer and a prominent banker in London and New York, eventually navigating Wall Street with uncommon skill. Chairman of Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center for many years, he is also an amateur cellist. But it was his tenure at the World Bank that made him an international force. While at the helm of his controversial institution, Wolfensohn motivated, schemed, charmed and bullied the constituencies at his command to broaden the distribution of the world's wealth. In 2005, he became the international envoy for Israel's disengagement from Gaza, overseeing a transition tragically collapse."
"Now Wolfensohn bluntly assesses his successes and failures. He reflects on his intense and tumultuous decade at the Bank and on the causes of continuing poverty. much more than a business story, this is a riveting account of a fascinating career and personality."
