A direct descendant of the Prophet Muhammad and educated in the United States, King Abdullah II of Jordan ascended to the throne in 1999, and has since helped his country become a beacon of light in the region—an economic powerhouse boasting a 99% youth literacy rate and a standout human rights record.
In Our Last Best Chance, he not only looks back on his life, but also offers his thoughts on issues like the impact of the Iraq War and how to deal with Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Most important, he also tackles the single toughest issue facing the world today—how to solve the Israeli-Palestinian standoff. His insights are invaluable. As he explains, we’re facing a moment of truth, and the cost of failure is greater than we dare imagine.
