As the CEO of Goldman Sachs from 1999-2006 and then as the Treasury Secretary of the United States from 2006-2009, Hank Paulson has sat across the bargaining table from countless Chinese politicians as both a banker and a statesman. Since leaving Washington, the former Treasury Secretary has worked on bridging the gap between East and West through The Paulson Institute, which he describes not as a think tank but as a "think and do" tank.
From the Foreword, by Rep. Barney Frank, especially written for the
trade paper edition: "For many people, what will be most striking
about this foreword is the fact that I wrote it. It's not every day
a partisan, liberal Democrat gets a call from a conservative,
high-ranking member of the George W. Bush administration asking for
a favorable introduction to anything. But when former secretary of
the Treasury Henry M. Paulson, Jr., called, I was quick to agree to
express in print my enthusiasm for his excellent recounting of some
of the most important and controversial events in our recent
national history."
