Few people have witnessed more scenes of chaos and conflict around the world than Anderson Cooper, whose groundbreaking coverage on CNN has changed the way we watch the news. In this gripping, candid, and remarkably powerful memoir, he offers an unstinting, up-close view of the most harrowing crises of our time, and the profound impact they have had on his life. </p>
After growing up on Manhattan's Upper East Side, Cooper felt a magnetic pull toward the unknown, an attraction to the far corners of the earth. If he could keep moving, and keep exploring, he felt he could stay one step ahead of his past, including the fame surrounding his mother, Gloria Vanderbilt, and the tragic early deaths of his father and older brother. As a reporter, the frenetic pace of filing dispatches from war-torn countries, and the danger that came with it, helped him avoid having to look too closely at the pain and loss that was right in front of him. </p>
But recently, during the course of one extraordinary, tumultuous year, it became impossible for him to continue to separate his work from his life, his family's troubled history from the suffering people he met all over the world. From the tsunami in Sri Lanka to the war in Iraq to the starvation in Niger and ultimately to Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans and Mississippi, Cooper gives us a firsthand glimpse of the devastation that takes place, both physically and emotionally, when the normal order of things is violently ruptured on such a massive scale. Cooper had been in his share of life-threatening situations before -- ducking fire on the streets of war-torn Sarejevo, traveling on his own to famine-stricken Somalia, witnessing firsthand the genocide in Rwanda -- but he had never seen human misery quite like this. Writing with vivid memories of his childhood and early career as a roving correspondent, Cooper reveals for the first time how deeply affected he has been by the wars, disasters, and tragedies he has witnessed, and why he continues to be drawn to some of the most perilous places on earth. </p>
Striking, heartfelt, and utterly engrossing, Dispatches from the Edge is an unforgettable memoir that takes us behind the scenes of the cataclysmic events of our age and allows us to see them through the eyes of one of America's most trusted, fearless, and pioneering reporters. </p>
安德森·库珀,Anderson Cooper
美国CNN传奇新闻主播、记者、作家,多次出入战地报道新闻,曾经获颁众多新闻奖项与9座艾美奖,被授予“国家荣誉勋章骑士”称号。
他对世界充满探索热情与求知欲望,在报道中渗透进深厚的内心情感,举世瞩目的成功改变了世界观众看新闻的 方式。处女作《边缘信使》高居《纽约时报》畅销榜冠军。
我有太多想说的了...伊拉克战争、卢旺达大屠杀、泰国政变、南非种族隔离、波黑战争...但凡我能想到我想见证的conflict,Anderson都在现场。年幼父亲去世对他的打击、之后哥哥自杀带来的沉痛,明明出身豪门却丝毫未受觥筹交错的影响,只身前往世界的边缘、最最被人遗忘的角落,只为证明自己还能去感受、还有人类特有的感情。我也想过自己为何对战争特别向往,但我并没有多么复杂的历史,仅仅是好奇作为“人”,我们的潜能到底有多大,“善”与“恶”到底能进行得多深,这两者之间的界线又有多纤细...看Anderson的回忆录我便都得到了答案。“You have the power of a thousand bulldozers.” 我相信是的,我们都是的。
评分I've always admired his intelligence. After reading this book, I realized that he was so much more than a charming news anchor, his bravery and kindness really touched my heart. I salute you, Anderson Cooper.

评分各种催泪。
柴静那本讲述央视十年历程的自传《看见》,可以说是曾经打在每一个中国人心坎上的一本书。 作者性质的成长告白,不仅是自我的剖析,更是社会变迁的备忘录。 在大量的新闻报道里,她没有可以选择标志性的大事件,而是记录了那些留给她强烈生命印象的人与事。 《看见》是我们大多...
评分父亲过世那年我十岁,那沉默的打击重启了我人生的时钟。至于在那之前的事情,我已经记不起来多少了,只有一些碎片,如同尖锐的碎玻璃一样散落在我的记忆中。我记得,我床边的桌子上放着一台旧地球仪,那时候的我五六岁吧。那是母亲送给我的礼物,她是从《走出非洲》的作者伊萨...
评分这本书也是我看了ANDERSON COOPER的PODCAST之后, 才找来看的。 能够在米国的新闻界里撑起一面旗帜, 绝对, 绝对, 在事业上讲, 算作不俗了。 在自信, 睿智, 快速反应的CNN的当红主播的背后,是一个怎样的AC呢? 自传中有一个大致的介绍。...
评分收到《边缘信使》是在出院到家的第二天,拆好封皮后直接就靠在床上读了起来。因为刚做了手术动弹不得,工作和家事也告一段落,可以读得比较专注,大概只花了2个上午。既然条目的书评中大家多都鼓掌喝彩,那我就来唱些反调吐个槽,这样也许挺有趣。对于安德森·库珀其人,拜读此...
