I have always been an admirer of hers from the time she was at the UN, and picked that book up off the new releases shelf. Its really good. I don't normally like memoirs - but this isn't just 'all about me', its about who she was with and what she saw in the highest branches of international politics. I disagreed with some of her conclusions, but consider her a very intelligent person who reasons well, and writes well. I also got to see her at our bookstore, where she read with the book. Just as fascinating in person.

She has another called The Mighty and the Almighty, about how religion intersects with policy for better or for worse, not just in this country but in all parts of the world. Again, fascinating reading.

Another Albright admirer, here. I read "The Mighty and the Almighty" and found it so clear and well-written. This lady is brilliant; I wish we could clone her....

Cindy and woodnymph - Thank you. I think I'd better take a look at The Mighty and the Almighty.

She has a new one out now, Letter to the President I think its called. I don't have it yet but plan to read it.
