书籍介绍
一本为在世且极度低调的政治人物立传的尝试,天然带着难以回避的困境:默克尔守口如瓶,刚卸任、仍在世,记者无从索取独家内幕。于是作者Kati Marton只能退回公共材料的富矿,把一场漫长执政中的重大危机逐一铺开——欧债危机、普京与乌克兰、难民问题——看一位出身东德、化学研究员、牧师之女的“局外人”,如何一步步走到西方世界的事实领袖之位。这决定了它的价值不在揭秘,而在“如何做事”:以谈判代替碾压,以退让守住核心,把对手请进内阁。它更适合想理解默克尔执政逻辑与危机应对的读者,而非期待八卦与秘辛的人。

用户评论
Great book about Angela’s adventure from East German to the leader of free world.
还行。一个守口如瓶,才刚卸任,还在世的总理,估计是很难挖到什么独家材料的。基本上是大量公共材料的梳理。
对于一个特别注重隐私,对自己的故事不感兴趣的非凡政治家来说,这大概是她的传记可能达到的极限了。“没有文件线索--没有日记或私人信件,甚至没有工作人员的备忘录”,还好作者在过去的四年被允许观察她的工作,以及和她的一些亲密朋友和助手交谈 刷完的感想就是,She is more than remarkable 时间线很详尽,章节分别讨论了她遇到的挑战,做出的重大决策,和结交/周旋的其他重要政治家。有些小轶事很有趣
理工科PhD叱咤政坛的大女主爽文
Language can’t be trusted. Humility and decency. Politician里的一股清流
Admiration of a longlasting powerful women drove me start the book.Go through all the major crises she’s been facing, including EU financial crisis, Ukrainian talking, immigration of refugees, nato expansion and Covid 19, I understand better now why she stands for it and what is behind with knowing the background of her.A scientist andEast Germany.
注重内在结果,不要在意外在的光环。Be scientific and detailed. 但整本书过于流水账。
全书都是作者的彩虹屁,有感受到她对默克尔的爱......
