出版商概要
"A tour de force. I have followed Rice for years, yet reading this book I feel like I only now understand her."--Thomas E. Ricks, author of Fiasco: The American Military Adventure in Iraq "Kessler, in this timely and important book, identifies the principal weakness of Rice's stewardship as the absence of any 'coherent foreign policy vision, ' especially regarding the Middle East. The calamitous consequences for America of this shortcoming are likely to be felt for years to come."--Zbigniew Brzezinski, national security advisor, 1977-1981 <br> <br>"Glenn Kessler is a tough, independent beat reporter of the old school. His chronicle of Condoleezza Rice's turn as Secretary of State is meticulous and fair, but it provides a devastating account of how Rice's diplomacy often rested on wish and illusion, and was finally overwhelmed by the Bush Administration's failed foreign policies."--Steve Coll, author of Ghost Wars: The Secret History of the CIA, Afghanistan, and Bin Laden, from the Soviet Invasion to September 10, 2001<br> <br>"Glenn Kessler has amassed a wealth of new material about Condoleezza Rice and the people around her. If you want to get beyond the image-makers and find out what Condoleezza Rice has actually been doing as secretary of state, this is the right book for you."--James Mann, JohnsHopkinsUniversity and author of Rise of the Vulcans: The History of the Bush War Cabinet<br> <br>"As foreign policy tutor, security adviser, and now as secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice has stood at the center of George Bush's foreign policy from day one. Glenn Kessler provides a fair and balanced assessment of how Rice's actions and inactions in these first incarnations made her job of guiding foreign policy now so much more difficult. A masterful treatment that is bound to stand the test of time."--Ivo Daalder, Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution and co-author ofAmerica Unbound: The Bush Revolution in Foreign Policy 再讀一些...
