具体描述
"Early to bed, early to rise, work like hell and advertise!"
These words of fatherly advice helped shape Ted Turner's remarkable life, but they only begin to explain the colorful, energetic, and unique style that has made Ted into one of the most amazing personalities of our time. Along the way - among his numerous accomplishments -- Ted became one of the richest men in the world, the largest land owner in the United States, revolutionized the television business with the creation of TBS and CNN, became a champion sailor and winner of the America's Cup, and took home a World Series championship trophy in 1995 as owner of the Atlanta Braves.
An innovative entrepreneur, outspoken nonconformist, and groundbreaking philanthropist, Ted Turner is truly a living legend, and now, for the first time, he reveals his personal story. From his difficult childhood to the successful launch of his media empire to the catastrophic AOL/Time Warner deal, Turner spares no details or feelings and takes the reader along on a wild and sometimes bumpy ride.
You'll also hear Ted's personal take on how we can save the world...share his experiences in the dugout on the day when he appointed himself as manager of the Atlanta Braves....learn how he almost lost his life in the 1979 Fastnet sailing race (but came out the winner)...and discover surprising details about his dealings with Fidel Castro, Mikhail Gorbachev, Jimmy Carter, Bill Gates, Jack Welch, Warren Buffett, and many more of the most influential people of the past half century.
Ted also doesn't shrink from the darker and more intimate details of his life. With his usual frankness, he discusses a childhood of loneliness (he was left at a boarding school by his parents at the tender age of four), and the emotional impact of devastating losses (Ted's beloved sister died at seventeen and his hard-charging father committed suicide when Ted was still in his early twenties). Turner is also forthcoming about his marriages, including the one to Oscar-winning actress, Jane Fonda.
Along the way, Ted's friends, colleagues, and family are equally revealing in their unique "Ted Stories" which are peppered throughout the book. Jane Fonda, especially, provides intriguing insights into Ted's inner drive and character.
In CALL ME TED, you'll hear Ted Turner's distinctive voice on every page. Always forthright, he tells you what makes him tick and what ticks him off, and delivers an honest account of what he's all about. Inspiring and entertaining, CALL ME TED sheds new light on one of the greatest visionaries of our time.

这本书带给我的冲击力，更多是来自其文字本身的“力量感”。作者的用词非常精准，不追求华丽辞藻的堆砌，而是追求一击即中的穿透力。阅读过程中，我常常能感受到那种文字如同雕塑般坚实、富有质感的力量。它不像某些作品那样需要靠大量情感渲染来推动情节，而是依靠事件本身的重量和人物选择的必然性来牵引读者前进。更让我印象深刻的是，作者在处理悲剧性元素时，表现出一种克制而又深沉的同情心，他没有过度渲染痛苦，而是让读者自己去体会那种无力感和无奈，这种“留白”的处理方式，比直接倾诉更具感染力。这让我意识到，真正的文学作品，有时需要的不是声音的洪亮，而是深度的沉静。对于那些厌倦了快餐式阅读，渴望被文字“雕刻”一番的读者来说，这本书绝对是近期难得的上乘之作，我强烈推荐尝试一下这种充满内劲的阅读体验。
评分说实话，这本书刚开始读的时候，我还有点担心它会不会太晦涩难懂，毕竟题材看起来挺有深度的。然而，随着阅读的深入，我发现作者的叙事功力实在了得。他成功地将复杂的人生哲理巧妙地融入到引人入胜的情节之中，使得那些原本可能枯燥的探讨变得生动活泼，引人入胜。我特别欣赏作者在构建世界观上的用心，虽然故事背景设定可能并非现代都市，但其中所蕴含的人性本质却是永恒的。书中的配角塑造也极其成功，他们不是简单地为主角服务，每个人都有自己独立而完整的生命轨迹和复杂的动机，这种立体感让整个故事的肌理更加丰满。我甚至花了好几个晚上，在看完相关章节后，忍不住去查阅了一些历史背景资料，想更深入地理解作者想要传达的时代气息和文化符号。这种能激发读者主动探索精神的书籍，在我看来，才是真正高质量的作品。它不只是提供了一个故事，更提供了一个探索世界的窗口。
评分读完这本书，我的第一感觉是，作者的“野心”非常大，但他成功地驾驭住了这份野心。他似乎试图在一本书里探讨关于“时间”、“记忆”与“身份认同”这几个宏大命题。但最妙的是，他没有采取宏大叙事的方式，而是将这些哲学思辨，紧密地捆绑在主角日常生活中那些微不足道的小事上——一次不经意的眼神接触，一份尘封已久的信件，甚至是一道特定的气味。正是这些极具生活质感的描写，让那些高深的思考变得触手可及，不再是高悬于空的理论。这本书的氛围营造非常出色，从开篇弥漫的淡淡的忧伤，到中间逐渐升温的紧张感，再到结尾那份近乎宿命的平静，情感的张力层层递进，丝丝入扣。我个人认为，它成功地在文学性和可读性之间找到了一个近乎完美的平衡点，既能满足文学爱好者的深度需求，也能让普通读者沉浸其中，享受阅读的乐趣。
评分哇，最近读完一本新书，感觉真是心潮澎湃，思绪万千！这本书的笔触细腻入微，仿佛能把人拉进那个特定的时空场景里，每一个细节都处理得恰到好处。作者对于人物心理的刻画简直是神来之笔，那些微妙的情绪波动，那些隐藏在内心深处的挣扎与渴望，都被挖掘得淋漓尽致。特别是主角在面对人生重大抉择时的内心独白，那种纠结和彷徨，读起来让人感同身受，甚至会忍不住停下来，深思自己过去的一些决定。书中的叙事节奏掌握得非常有张力，高潮迭起，低谷沉静，如同乐章般富有层次感，让人根本舍不得放下。而且，这本书的语言风格非常独特，时而如同清晨的薄雾般缥缈空灵，时而又像夏日的雷雨般激烈酣畅，这种语言上的变化，极大地丰富了阅读体验。读完之后，感觉不仅仅是看了一个故事，更像是一次深刻的自我对话和心灵洗礼。这本书无疑会在我的书架上占据一个非常重要的位置，值得反复品味。
评分最近读到的这本书，它的结构设计简直像一个精密的钟表，每一个齿轮——每一个章节、每一个场景——都咬合得天衣无缝。我很少看到一本书能将两条看似不相关的叙事线索，铺陈得如此自然，最终汇聚成一股震撼人心的洪流。叙事者采用了多重视角来展现同一个事件的不同侧面，这极大地增强了故事的客观性和复杂性，迫使读者不断地调整自己的认知，去拼凑出完整的真相。这种“碎片化”但又逻辑严密的叙事手法，在当代文学中也属罕见。每一次的转折都来得合情合理，却又出乎意料，让人拍案叫绝。尤其是一些关键对话的设计，言简意赅，信息量巨大，反复推敲后总能发现新的解读层次。这本书对那些热衷于深度分析和细节考据的读者来说，绝对是一场盛宴。我已经开始期待未来是否有机会能看到关于此书的学术研讨了。
