It is by turns poignant and hilarious, as she moves from the classroom to the boardroom of the New York Stock Exchange (where someone mistakenly thought they would get a big name who wouldn’t push back at $140 million executive compensation packages) to the indignities of being a 'former somebody'.
This passionately told account of Albright’s 'afterlife' will inspire readers to become involved in the issues meaningful to them. Recommended for all interested in politics, leadership, and women’s studies..
The book reflects the energy and churn of [Albrights's] post-State Department life. It zigs-zags from subject to subject, keeping you on your toes, never quite sure where the next paragraph will take you.

Albright is a national treasure, and her continued engagement in public service is inspiring and indispensable..
