With startling candor and intimacy, Sonia Sotomayor recounts her life from a Bronx housing project to the federal bench, a progress that is testament to her extraordinary determination and the power of believing in oneself. She writes of her precarious childhood and the refuge she took with her passionately spirited paternal grandmother. She describes her resolve as a young girl to become a lawyer, and how she made this dream become reality: valedictorian of her high school class, summa cum laude at Princeton, Yale Law, prosecutor in the Manhattan D.A.'s office, private practice, federal district judge before the age of forty. She writes about her deeply valued mentors, about her failed marriage, about her cherished family of friends. Through her still-astonished eyes, America's infinite possibilities are envisioned anew in this warm and honest book, destined to become a classic of self-discovery and self-invention, alongside Barack Obama's Dreams from My Father.
釜底抽薪从来都属于智者,你不得不服她的发迹史,抽到South Bronx / catholic upbringing/juvenile obesity / father died young/ mom ( used to be) an alcoholic这样牌面的working class ,还能翻身打进Supreme Court ,绝对是极有慧根的了。所以,以此为鸡汤来励志的,我觉得普适性不大呢。
评分出身波多黎各穷苦家庭,I型糖尿病……内容过于心灵鸡汤了。
评分If there is anything more you can ask in your life, appreciate for everything you have got and look forward to whatever will come along. Life is a one-time ticket. Justice Sotomayor could not be born any more common than any of us, but she has lived her life up to her dream. Edu can change a life, but whether to go for a good education, your call.

评分Great!!!
