NEW YORK (CNN) -- After the success of his autobiography "My Life," former U.S. President Bill Clinton will write a second book, the chairman of Alfred A. Knopf Publishing, Sonny Mehta, announced Wednesday.

The book, which does not yet have a title, is due to be published in late 2007 or early 2008 and will focus on stories of individual activism as well as inform readers about ways they can get involved in these efforts.

"Since leaving public office, I have met so many good people who are doing tremendous work to help improve the lives of people in the U.S. and around the world," Clinton said.

"We all have the capacity to do great things like this, and I am writing this book to encourage others to join their ranks."

Alfred A. Knopf, who will publish the book, would not disclose the financial terms of the deal.

Clinton is said to have received a $10 to $12 million advance for writing "My Life," which Knopf published in 2004.
