No one gets the inside story like Bob Woodward, the reporter of the Watergate scandal who has made a career of investigating -- and writing about -- the inner workings of the highest levels of government. In The Choice he has produced a look at the two candidates for the 1996 presidential race, Bill Clinton and Bob Dole, published before the two parties' political conventions. The book details the political maneuvers endemic to the current climate: strategies, sessions, spins and ads aimed at repositioning and re-focusing either of the candidates in the light most favorable to the latest poll. It is the private not the public faces of our politicians that engage Woodward's skeptical gaze.

BOB WOODWARD is an assistant managing editor of The Washington Post. Over the last 22 years he has authored or co-authored seven number-one national bestselling books. Woodward and Carl Bernstein, in their Pulitzer Prize-winning Watergate reporting for The Washington Post and in their two books, All the President's Men (1974) and The Final Days (1976), set the standard for modern investigative reporting. Since then, Woodward's number-one bestsellers have been groundbreaking studies of the Supreme Court in The Brethren (1979), the Hollywood drug culture in Wired (1984), the CIA in Veil (1987), the Pentagon and the Gulf War in The Commanders (1991), and the Clinton White House in The Agenda (1994). In The Choice, he uses his proven research methods for an illuminating exam-ination of the quest for the presidency. Woodward lives in Washington, D.C., with his wife, Elsa Walsh, a writer for The New Yorker and the author of Divided Lives. His daughter, Tali, attends the University of California at Berkeley.
