罗伯特·鲁宾(Robert Rubin):花旗银行执行董事会主席,美国克林顿时期财政部长(1995—1999),高盛公司董事会主席(1990—1992)。作者呈现给读者的是一本“借自传形式介绍政策的书籍”。书中以很短的篇幅回忆了童年时代和求学历程,随后描述他人生经历中的华彩篇章(高盛—白宫—花旗),阐述了他所笃信的“或然性理论”,也从一个侧面讲述了美国前总统克林顿的工作和生活。
Robert Rubin was sworn in as the seventieth U.S. Secretary of the Treasury in January 1995 in a brisk ceremony attended only by his wife and a few colleagues. As soon as the ceremony was over, he began an emergency meeting with President Bill Clinton on the financial crisis in Mexico. This was not only a harbinger of things to come during what would prove to be a rocky period in the global economy; it also captured the essence of Rubin himself--short on formality, quick to get into the nitty-gritty.
From his early years in the storied arbitrage department at Goldman Sachs to his current position as chairman of the executive committee of Citigroup, Robert Rubin has been a major figure at the center of the American financial system. He was a key player in the longest economic expansion in U.S. history. With In an Uncertain World , Rubin offers a shrewd, keen analysis of some of the most important events in recent American history and presents a clear, consistent approach to thinking about markets and dealing with the new risks of the global economy.
Rubin's fundamental philosophy is that nothing is provably certain. Probabilistic thinking has guided his career in both business and government. We see that discipline at work in meetings with President Clinton and Hillary Clinton, Chinese premier Zhu Rongji, Alan Greenspan, Lawrence Summers, Newt Gingrich, Sanford Weill, and the late Daniel Patrick Moynihan. We see Rubin apply it time and again while facing financial crises in Asia, Russia, and Brazil; the federal government shutdown; the rise and fall of the stock market; the challenges of the post-September 11 world; the ongoing struggle over fiscal policy; and many other momentous economic and political events.
With a compelling and candid voice and a sharp eye for detail, Rubin portrays the daily life of the White House-confronting matters both mighty and mundane--as astutely as he examines the challenges that lie ahead for the nation. Part political memoir, part prescriptive economic analysis, and part personal look at business problems, In an Uncertain World is a deep examination of Washington and Wall Street by a figure who for three decades has been at the center of both worlds.

评分作者经历高盛、白宫和花旗高职位,知道很多,经历丰富,才智过人。我们很多人就是冲着这点去读他的书,希望学到一招半式的。但是,大家想想,那三个地方很多机密是随意能透露的吗?作者作为领导者,能随便写在书上吗?且不说人际之间的利害关系,就以公司和政府的保密规定而言...
评分我推荐的另外一本书《绝处逢生》的作者是美国国税局的原局长,这位局长大人就是鲁宾提拔上来的。在提拔之前,他是一家企业的CEO。 在书中作者谈到与鲁宾初步接触的场景,鲁宾估计也看透了这家伙的性格,一句“收拾这个局面非你莫属,美国需要你”(大意是这样),让其改变了坚...
评分条理很清楚,连我这样断断续续看的手机党也不会觉得厌烦。比如说墨西哥、亚洲金融危机,还有减税的负效应,美国的赤字,这些问题都讲得很好。 鲁宾本身的生活态度也很值得欣赏,他知道生活永远有别的可能性,而变得更愿意去承担责任,面临风险,当遇到困难的时候,把它放到...

你知道他有很多没有告诉你,也明白告诉你的很多其实都是烟幕,可以说出来的那些烟幕。

评分这是一大串儿对冲基金经理的导师,不过我还是喜欢学者甚于这种人
评分对我来说,传记都是垃圾,不管是谁的
