"Secretary Geithner will aim to answer the most important -- and to many the most troubling
-- questions about the choices he and his colleagues made, the strategies they adopted, and the economic aftermath. By describing what went right, what went wrong and the lessons learned along the way, Secretary Geithner intends to provide a
'play book' that future policy makers can draw on and that the public can use to understand how and why governments act in crisis." Geithner, 51, stepped down in January as Treasury secretary and was succeeded by Jack Lew. Financial terms for Geithner's book were not disclosed. Geithner was represented by Washington attorney Robert Barnett, who has negotiated deals for Obama, former President Clinton and Geithner's predecessor at the Treasury, Henry Paulson. Obama's best-selling "Dreams from My Father" and "The Audacity of Hope" also were published by Crown.
