"A reality-based strategy for economic renewal packed with ideas on how to fix America's job machine . . . Offers some well-timed optimism . . . Contains sensible ideas . . . Articulate, engaging." --Daniel Gross, The Washington Post "A lucid one-man rebuttal of the Tea Party's anti-government agenda and a practical set of proposals . . . for restoring economic growth. A succinct common-sense argument for why America needs a strong national government, why both spending cuts and increased tax revenues are necessary for addressing the debt problem (which is going to get worse given the demographics of an aging baby-boomer population and the high costs of interest payments), and why that debt problem 'can't be solved unless the economy starts growing again.'" --Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "This book presents page after page of intelligent suggestions on how the U.S. can cut its crippling debt, create new jobs, and get 'back into the future business' . . . I found much to agree with." --James Pressley, Bloomberg News "A personal, plain-spoken economic picture of where we are, a mile-high view of the three decades that got us here, and how to revive our economy in classic 'American Dream growth' style. . . . If this list whiplashes from the nitty-gritty to the mile-high view and back again, it demonstrates that Clinton is a politician who can operate at both levels without breaking a sweat. . . . A book with the chutzpah that the Democrats have been missing." --Carolyn Kellogg, Los Angeles Times "Four stars . . . There's an upbeat, front-foot tone to Back to Work that is welcome at a time of despair. Love him or hate him, [Clinton] hasn't lost his touch . . . It's refreshing to hear from him." --Martin Vander Weyer, The Telegraph (U.K.) "Convincing . . . A rallying cry to America . . . Informed, high-minded, intelligent and persuasive... Clinton is probably the best natural politician of his generation. His skill at framing an argument is without peer and that he generally does so without demagoguery is to his lasting credit. In this case, the fact that he has simple common sense on his side doesn't hurt either. These pages should be required reading for any Democrat running for office next year." --Erik Tarloff, The Observer (U.K.) "Bill Clinton has an idea. A few dozen ideas, in fact, about ways large and small to get unemployed Americans back to work--from granting property tax breaks for investments that create jobs to painting every flat tar roof in U.S. cities white for the energy savings." --Susan Page, USA Today "A book full of ideas about how to revive the economy and get America's unemployed millions back to work . . . The book has two main strengths. First, while arguing, rightly, that in the short run the American economy urgently needs a boost from government spending, it spells out in simple terms why Uncle Sam also needs a credible strategy for sorting out the country's long-term fiscal problems . . . Second, Mr. Clinton is at his famously wonkish best in scouring America and the world to find practical ideas for getting people back to work." -- The Economist "Feisty . . . a cogent, well-informed attack on the GOP's 'antigovernment ideology.' A smart, forthright, appealingly folksy defense of activist government." -- Publishers' Weekly, "A reality-based strategy for economic renewal packed with ideas on how to fix America's job machine . . .

Synopsis
President Bill Clinton gives us his views on the challenges facing the United States today and why government matters--presenting his ideas on restoring economic growth, job creation, financial responsibility, resolving the mortgage crisis, and pursuing a strategy to get us "back in the future business." He explains how we got into the current economic crisis, and offers specific recommendations on how we can put people back to work, increase bank lending and corporate investment, double our exports, restore our manufacturing base, and create new businesses. He supports President Obama's emphasis on green technology, saying that changing the way we produce and consume energy is the strategy most likely to spark a fast-growing economy while enhancing our national security. Clinton also stresses that we need a strong private sector and a smart government working together to restore prosperity and progress, demonstrating that whenever we've given in to the temptation to blame government for all our problems, we've lost our ability to produce sustained economic growth and shared prosperity. Clinton writes, "There is simply no evidence that we can succeed in the twenty-first century with an antigovernment strategy," based on "a philosophy grounded in 'you're on your own' rather than 'we're all in this together.' " He believes that conflict between government and the private sector has proved to be good politics but has produced bad policies, giving us a weak economy with not enough jobs, growing income inequality and poverty, and a decline in our competitive position. In the real world, cooperation works much better than conflict, and "Americans need victories in real life."
