World Affairs Council event -- "Running the World..."

Brief Description of Event: David Rothkopf takes a behind-the-scenes look at “the most powerful committee in the history of the world" – the small group of men and women who work, often in secret, within the White House to make the most fateful decisions of our time. In Running the World he pulls back the curtain on this shadowy world to explore its inner workings, its people, their relationships, their contributions and the occasions when they have gone wrong.
