In an earlier book, Dreams From My Father, dealt with his early life, in Honolulu and Chicago.
President Obama will face questions in an exclusive 30-minute interview with François Busnel, broadcast at 8.35pm on Tuesday, after the evening news. As well as discussing key moments of his rise to the Presidency and first term in office, the programme will include extracts from the book.
