A great milestone in my Master’s degree is reading this book. Nicolas is absolutely the man of his people, climbing the ranks of French politics with sincerity. I always remember his results-based policies as minister of several ministry. His humane approach to the people, and his ability to be a moderate rightist, is an exceptional spectacle.

He may havevlostvthevelection, but he may have the last laugh (not that he wants it, I'm sure).
France, and the French are complicated...no argument there. But the transition from a post WW II society to the 21st century France that, in spite of best efforts against it, is happening with chilling effects on her residents. Sarkozy's blueprint, aaIMHO, is just what France needs, rather than the 75% income tax his successor is putting on the wealthy, who appear to be leaving, with their assets, in droves...

I read this book to learn more about France without having to read a tome of French political history. Sarkozy focuses on several of France's modern problems, how he thinks they should be solved, and how he he has tried to solve them in his various government positions. Very interesting! The only problem is that it is outdated in terms of what has happened recently in France, such as Sarkozy becoming President.

The writing could be better and a bit tighter (it is repetitve in spots). But if you want to know the current French president's vision for his country, you should definitely read this book. No one should be surprised by what Sarkozy proposes because it is all laid out clearly in print.

It's too bad we don't have this kind of innovative leadership in the United States.

A good read into both the thinking of the French president as well as an eye opener on some of the issues confronting France
