评分善于学习的聪明人
评分流水账,很一般。喜欢政治和历史的人应该会喜欢。这本里说到了莱温斯基,中国驻南斯拉夫大使馆等热门事件,看了这一本后就觉得他写得好政治,不诚恳
比尔・克林顿,1946年8月19日出生于美国阿肯色州霍普市一个小店主家庭。法学博士学位。妻子是同班女同学希拉里。1976年,当选阿肯色州司法部长。1979年,他就任阿肯色州第40任州长。时年仅32岁,被新闻界称为“孩子州长”。1992年11月3日,他在大选中以压倒性优势获胜,击败布什,当选美国第42任总统。
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.
克林顿和希拉里眼中的哈维尔 爱智慧 今天在阅读一些关于哈维尔的文字时,突然想起当初阅读克林顿的自传《我的生活》中,里面也提到:哈韦尔。(该书中文版是把他翻译成“哈韦尔”的,延续东方出版社的《哈韦尔自传》的翻译)且让我们看看克林顿眼中的哈维尔是如何模样的:...
评分一: 1969年的冬天,在牛津大学求学的克林顿开始了欧洲之行。从阿姆斯特丹出发经斯堪的纳维亚诸国抵达苏联,然后途经布拉格和慕尼黑最后返回英国,整整40天的行程。这次全新的旅程给克林顿留下了深刻印象,他在途中遇见了许多人和事,生发了许多感慨。这段描写他苏联之行的文字...

评分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...
评分冗长乏味到令人难以想象,流水账记得真是长。 然而对于那些关键的事实,那段时间的账却中断了,消失了,只字不提,避重就轻让人遗憾。 全书试图将一个政治家(政客)塑造成高大全的形象,可惜,谁会相信? 不过考虑到此人当时财政危机不得不码字谋生,又怕连累老婆的前途,这本...
