I really wanted to like this book, as I respect Madeleine Albright, but I was ultimately disappointed with this book. The first part of the book is good, but the following 2/3 just didn't interest me. The most interesting parts were the times she was summarizing her previous books, which have to be more interesting than this book. Albright mentions all the businesses and charities she's involved in, and the people she works with, but rarely goes in depth about interactions with said people. I agree with the other reviewers who said this book seems more like a cash grab book than anything substantial. I will, however, probably pick up her previous works which seem more interesting than this turned out to be.
