For inspiration and direction, we can look to the remarkable individuals in John McCain and Mark Salter's book, which dramatically describes the anatomy of a great decision: Branch Rickey's decision to offer Jackie Robinson a contract to play for the Brooklyn Dodgers in the face of public opposition.Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf's decision to return to Liberia after receiving an economics degree from Harvard University to face the nightmare of a civil war, imprisonment, and the challenge of leadership.General Fred Weyand's decision to redeploy fifteen of his battalions despite resistance from senior American military commanders in Vietnam.Woven into these stories are McCain's own views on the process and art of decision-making, and stories about hard calls he's faced, and the ones we might all have to face in the future. HARD CALL is an inspiring testament to grace under pressure by one of America's most admired political leaders. 1860877 14 8 2007 Hard Call: Great Decisions and the Extraordinary People Who Made Them total:4|5:1|4:1|3:1|1:1| 4 13 5 2 5 0 false false Tue Apr 29 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed Mar 26 13:43:18 -0700 2008 Tue Apr 29 10:55:50 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Dec 10 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Wed Sep 10 08:37:17 -0700 2008 Wed Sep 10 08:38:12 -0700 2008 3 0 false false Mon Jun 15 10:52:49 -0700 2009 Thu May 07 04:25:49 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 15 10:52:49 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Apr 23 19:34:46 -0700 2009 Thu Apr 23 19:34:46 -0700 2009 1 0 false false Fri Mar 07 06:06:23 -0800 2008 Fri Mar 07 06:06:23 -0800 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=1860216
