President Bill Clinton’s My Life is the strikingly candid portrait of a global leader who decided early in life to devote his intellectual and political gifts, and his extraordinary capacity for hard work, to serving the public.

It shows us the progress of a remarkable American, who, through his own enormous energies and efforts, made the unlikely journey from Hope, Arkansas, to the White House—a journey fueled by an impassioned interest in the political process which manifested itself at every stage of his life: in college, working as an intern for Senator William Fulbright; at Oxford, becoming part of the Vietnam War protest movement; at Yale Law School, campaigning on the grassroots level for Democratic candidates; back in Arkansas, running for Congress, attorney general, and governor.

We see his career shaped by his resolute determination to improve the life of his fellow citizens, an unfaltering commitment to civil rights, and an exceptional understanding of the practicalities of political life.

We come to understand the emotional pressures of his youth—born after his father’s death; caught in the dysfunctional relationship between his feisty, nurturing mother and his abusive stepfather, whom he never ceased to love and whose name he took; drawn to the brilliant, compelling Hillary Rodham, whom he was determined to marry; passionately devoted, from her infancy, to their daughter, Chelsea, and to the entire experience of fatherhood; slowly and painfully beginning to comprehend how his early denial of pain led him at times into damaging patterns of behavior.

President Clinton’s book is also the fullest, most concretely detailed, most nuanced account of a presidency ever written—encompassing not only the high points and crises but the way the presidency actually works: the day-to-day bombardment of problems, personalities, conflicts, setbacks, achievements.

It is a testament to the positive impact on America and on the world of his work and his ideals.

It is the gripping account of a president under concerted and unrelenting assault orchestrated by his enemies on the Far Right, and how he survived and prevailed.

It is a treasury of moments caught alive, among them:

• The ten-year-old boy watching the national political conventions on his family’s new (and first) television set.

• The young candidate looking for votes in the Arkansas hills and the local seer who tells him, “Anybody who would campaign at a beer joint in Joiner at midnight on Saturday night deserves to carry one box. . . . You’ll win here. But it’ll be the only damn place you win in this county.” (He was right on both counts.)

• The roller-coaster ride of the 1992 campaign.

• The extraordinarily frank exchanges with Newt Gingrich and Bob Dole.

• The delicate manipulation needed to convince Rabin and Arafat to shake hands for the camera while keeping Arafat from kissing Rabin.

• The cost, both public and private, of the scandal that threatened the presidency.

Here is the life of a great national and international figure, revealed with all his talents and contradictions, told openly, directly, in his own completely recognizable voice. A unique book by a unique American.--From the Hardcover edition.

把这本传记当作睡前读物,每天读两章正好睡觉。昨天试了一下,的确是催眠的上佳读物。   一直挺喜欢看人物传记的,喜欢看别人的人生轨迹,想从那些似乎与平凡人类似的生活中看出他们之所以与众不同的地方来。我总觉得再伟大的人,都是靠后天努力取得自己的成就,我想知...

我想说的其实不是关于这本书,而是关于传记这种书。 我爱读各种各样的书,当然有偏好——我喜欢情节跌宕描述动人的故事书,喜欢深入浅出风趣幽默的扫盲书,喜欢娓娓道来事无巨细的历史书,当然还有各种其他乱七八糟无法归类的书。 传记通常被我归在故事书那一类里面,因为有...

我在书店里看到这本书,拿起来读了一会就放不下了。前边克林顿写自己小时候的那一段非常真诚,文笔优美、简洁,可以当一部小说看。   但是写到他上大学,从政之后,就让人看得不耐烦了。我们不了解美国的政治,也没兴趣了解。   但是仅为前边的一百页,也要推荐这本书。

终于读到了尾声,终于可以比较“放心”的写下点感受,而不去害怕自己是在断章取义。 这本自传对我最大的益处是让我对美国的政治体制有一个大概的粗略的了解。PS 最近无意中看到一些介绍马英九的文章,发现小马哥的经历和Clinton是有相似之处的。台湾搞出来的一套治“国”体制...

这书的纸板和音频都很好,虽然有声读物剪去了很多部分,但是讲到克林顿成为几条狗的头的时候,还是很幽默的,人物传记从来无好坏之分,克林顿精彩,这书也很精彩

听的是CD,最关键的希拉里怎么就原谅比尔的十分钟竟然放!不!出!来!我想到以前租录像带的时候,经常会遇到“精彩片段”多雪花多毛病。。。可是小图书馆里CD的书目选择比MP3的选择要多得多。
