Confidence Men: Wall Street, Washington, and the Education of a President

The book "Confidence Men" by Ron Suskind is a gripping and brilliantly reported story of how Wall Street and the White House learned how to manufacture confidence, until it finally began to crumble in 2007.

This book offers a full portrait of Barack Obama's tumultuous presidency and his determination to reverse the trend of straying from long-standing principles of transparency, accountability, and fair dealing.

The president surrounded himself with seasoned players who had served a different president in a different time, while the nation's crises deepened and bitter disputes ruled the day.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the hidden history of Wall Street and the White House and how confidence can shape our lives in unexpected ways.
