Descripción de la solapa

During his terms in the U.S. Senate, Bill Bradley won a national reputation for thoughtfulness, decency, and a willingness to take controversial positions on issues ranging from tax reform to the rights of Native Americans. All these qualities inform this best-selling memoir, in which Bradley assesses his political career and the experiences that shaped his convictions, and looks beyond them to consider the state of the American union on the eve of the 21st century. Time Present, Time Past offers an intimate portrait of the day-to-day working of the Senate: how legislation gets passed and sometimes thwarted; how money is raised and at what cost. But Bradley also writes about deeper questions: What does it means to be an American in an ago of dwindling opportunities and increasing inequality? How much can we expect from our public servants? What do we owe our fellow citizens? The result is a genuinely revelatory book, informed by intelligence, compassion, and unprecedented candor.


"Strikingly reflects the realities of modern politics, what it looks like, feels like, from the inside."--New York Times Book Review

PRAISE FOR Time Present, Time Past:

"Strikingly reflects the realities of modern politics, what it looks like, feels like, from the inside."--The New York Times Book Review

"Intelligent, surprisingly candid and exceptionally well written. A love letter to America [by] someone shrewd and knowledgeable about the country."--Vanity Fair

"In this impressive memoir, Bradley...uses his memories of life on and off the court, and on and off the Senate floor, as a starting point for discussions of race, immigration, campaign financing, and political integrity.... Bradley is highly readable, thought provoking, and refreshingly honest."--Booklist

Descripción:
Vintage, 14-Jan-97. First Vintage Edition. Trade Paperback. Very Good. No spine creases & moderate wear on cover. Aging pages with a few spots on edge, no markings in text. From Publishers Weekly: The political autobiography of the former New Jersey senator and former New York Knick, an eight-week PW bestseller, features a new afterword by the author. Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc. From Library Journal: Part autobiography, part political position paper, this audio memoir is an abridged version of the author's book of the same title (LJ 1/96).
