    About this audiobook

    This is an inspiring, engrossing tale of one man's odyssey from physics professor and college president to citizen diplomat, searching for "a better game than war." Fresh, candid and compassionate, he challenges us all in new ways to find our passion and respond to it, to think about our values and the nature of change and risk.
