Sobre IBD

Olof Palme (Sweden), Olusegun Obasanjo (Nigeria), and Indira Gandhi (India) achieved the pinnacle of political power, fell from or relinquished power, and then, after a period in the political wilderness, regained it. By placing greater emphasis than that customarily accorded by biographers on the 'interment' that followed their 'fall' and preceded their 'resurrection,' the book describes how what they did, the lessons they learned, and the mistakes made by their successors facilitated their reentry.
