mantissabolt 's review for:
Who Is Government?: The Untold Story of Public Service
by Michael Lewis
challenging
emotional
informative
inspiring
medium-paced
This is a difficult book to read right now. It is series of essays about great US Federal bureaucrats. While you are reading this, you wonder "Do they and their co-workers still have jobs?" All the essays are good but as always some are better then others. I got this because I really wanted hear Sarah Vowell's voice, again, it has been TOO long. Her essay (about the National Archives) is great, but my favorite is Geraldine Brooks' "The Cyber Sleuth". I loved hearing about IRS agents taking down the worst of the worst in cyber crime. Cool.
I recommend this book, if you can handle the stress of not knowing it they still have their jobs.
