Inhaltsangabe:
From a former US government insider comes this suspenseful debut novel, centring on the intrigues, deceptions and temptations of Washington politics Peter Cutler is a respected Princeton professor living a quiet academic life when an old college friend makes him an offer he can't refuse: The position of foreign policy advisor for Democratic presidential candidate Wayne Kent. Cutler takes the job and eagerly jumps into the political fray. When Kent wins the election, Cutler is thrilled to find himself Under-Secretary of State. But he soon discovers that the power politics of Washington are a far cry from the comforts of university life. In order to survive, he must participate in a ruthless tug of war in which everyone struggles to promote his own agenda. As Cutler becomes increasingly absorbed in the underhanded tactics of bureaucratic survival and the charms of an old girlfriend working in the Pentagon, his initial foreign policy goals recede into the background. Ultimately, the allure and hypocrisy of political life cause him to alienate everyone he cares about- and to make one life-altering political miscalculation.

Hardcover. [8], 247, [5] p. Peter Cutler, a professor of international relations at Princeton, provides some assistance with what proves to be a successful Presidential campaign. The grateful new President appoints him to the position of undersecretary of state for security, thus launching Peter's brief, tumultuous career in politics. Although he enjoys being at the center of the action, he is ill-equipped to cope with Washington bureaucracy, and all of his academic knowledge is not enough to prevent him from mishandling a dangerous situation with global implications. THE POWER GAME is the fiction debut of a former member of the State and Defense departments during the Clinton administration, respected for his nonfiction writings about foreign policy and diplomacy. Nye was the former dean of the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University and also was Chairman of the National Intelligence Council. While a prolific non-fiction author, this work is the author's first novel. Very good in very good dust jacket. Signed by author. First edition. First edition [stated]. First printing [stated].
