personal and reflective memoir . . . is a must-read for anyone
who cares about our role in a changing world.”—President Barack
ObamaAn intimate, powerful, and galvanizing memoir by Pulitzer
Prize winner, human rights advocate, and former UN Ambassador
Samantha Power.In her memoir, Power offers an urgent response to
the question What can one person do? and a call for a clearer
eye, a kinder heart, and a more open and civil hand in our
politics and daily lives. The Education of an Idealist traces
Power’s distinctly American journey from immigrant to war
correspondent to presidential Cabinet official. In 2005, her
critiques of US foreign policy caught the eye of newly elected
senator Barack Obama, who invited her to work with him on
Capitol Hill and then on his presidential campaign. After Obama
was elected president, Power went from being an activist
outsider to a government insider, navigating the halls of power
while trying to put her ideals into practice. She served for
four years as Obama’s human rights adviser, and in 2013, he
named her US Ambassador to the United Nations, the youngest
American to assume the role.Power transports us from her
childhood in Dublin to the streets of war-torn Bosnia to the
White House Situation Room and the world of high-stakes
diplomacy. Humorous and deeply honest, The Education of an
Idealist lays bare the searing battles and defining moments of
her life and shows how she juggled the demands of a 24/7
national security job with the challenge of raising two young
children. Along the way, she illuminates the intricacies of
politics and geopolitics, reminding us how the United States can
lead in the world, and why we each have the opportunity to
advance the cause of human dignity. Power’s memoir is an
unforgettable account of the power of idealism and of one
person’s fierce determination to make a difference.“This is a
wonderful book. […] The interweaving of Power’s personal story,
family story, diplomatic history and moral arguments is executed
seamlessly and with unblinking honesty.”—THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN, The
New York Times Book Review “Honest, personal, revealing… about
the development of a young woman’s inner strength and
self-knowledge.”—COLM TÓIBÍN, author of Brooklyn and Nora
Webster“Truly engrossing.”—RACHEL MADDOW
