Rezension zu „Henry Kissinger and the American Century “
"Probing thoughtfully into Kissinger's background and character, Suri sees the secretary as the Cold War's ultimate statesman. Eschewing polemics... this work explores what-shaped and nurtured the phenomenon that was Henry Kissinger." - The Atlantic "An interpretation of his life that stands out among recent books on the subject for the extent and the depth of the author's research... This is surely the best book yet published about Henry Kissinger." - Niall Ferguson, Times Literary Supplement "Suri is at his best when demonstrating the roots of Kissinger's distrust of mass democratic politics, his obsession with strong leaders, his emphasis on the limits of American power and his disdain for the 'insular self-righteousness' and 'utopianism' of reformers 'advocating a vision of global democracy.'" - Eric Arnesen, Chicago Tribune"
