A Remarkable Mother is President Carter's loving, admiring, wry homage to Miss Lillian Carter, who championed the underdog always, even when her son was president. A registered nurse, pecan grower, university housemother, Peace Corps volunteer, public speaker, and renowned raconteur, Miss Lillian ignored the mores and prejudices of the racially segregated South of the Great Depression years.

The world’s discrimination and violence against women and girls is the most serious, pervasive, and ignored violation of basic human rights: This is President Jimmy Carter’s call to action. A Call to Action addresses the suffering inflicted upon women by a false interpretation of carefully selected religious texts and a growing tolerance of violence and warfare. Key verses are often omitted or quoted out of context by male religious leaders to exalt the status of men and exclude women.

The relationship between America and Pakistan is based on mutual incomprehension, and always has been. Pakistan - to American eyes - has gone from being a stabilizing friend to an essential military ally to a seedbed of terror.

A powerful memoir from the late former US Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. With the same directness that defined his career in public service, Rumsfeld's memoir is filled with previously undisclosed details and insights about the Bush administration, 9/11, and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. It also features Rumsfeld's unique and often surprising observations on eight decades of history. Both a fascinating narrative and an unprecedented glimpse into history, Known and Unknown captures the legacy of one of the most influential men in public service.

Publisher's Summary
Carter describes the history of previous peace efforts and why they fell short. He argues persuasively that the road to a peace agreement is now open and that it has broad international and regional support. Most of all, since there will be no progress without courageous and sustained U.S. leadership, he says the time for progress is now. President Barack Obama is committed to a personal effort to exert that leadership, starting early in his administration.
This is President Carter's call for action, and he lays out a practical and doable path to peace.

Wisdom Literature
Here Jimmy Carter provides a useful and succinct survey of the Israeli Palestinian conflict, with a a review of efforts that have been made to achieve peace, and a list of practical proposals for future realization.
His book, appeared just as the Gaza assault, "Cast Lead" was concluding. At the time the title of this book appeared to be unrealistic, given that the outbreak of violence made peace seem ever more remote.
The title "We Can Have Peace.." in this context is an expression of defiance; it defies the ill will of those who would obviate the prospects for peace. Carter is convinced that an informed and determined American leadership can make a positive difference, even as the horizon seems unremittingly bleak. Thus the book is, both a guide for the perplexed, and a briefing for the new President.
His advice conforms closely to those who have anonymously toiled for the cause of peace. Carter endorsed and encouraged the Geneva Accords, the agreement that was the outcome of a tough negotiating process between seasoned Israeli and Palestinian representatives, which aimed to create an agreement that respected the security requirements of all concerned. No American leader has demonstrated such commitment to this vital cause.
Jimmy Carter is not a professional reader, but this reading was clear. I appreciated that it was his voice speaking. It gave the sense of being directly addressed by an eminent personage who is both earnest and brilliant, who has been fastidious in taking detailed notes of pertinent information that he is determined to share with you.
I would recommend this book to those least likely to think it is for them, but have an avid interest in the middle east and are seriously concerned about peace and the practical measures that have to be taken for its achievement.

Jimmy should NOT have read this
I'd probably get the 'book' rather than the audio version. Jimmy is starting to slur his words too much and it makes listening a little less enticing. The content is pretty good, and the maps are available on Audible it says [although I haven't seen them, nor looked yet], but like Peace or Apartheid it probably makes more sense to get the 'book' with the appendixes to refer to, especially since they are both quick reads.
