She’s a planner who understands that every complex problem requires a comprehensive response. She’s a fighter who discovered the hard way that nobody gives up power willingly. She’s a learner who thinks, listens, and works to fight racism in America. And she’s a woman who has proven over and over that women are just as capable as men.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“[Warren] takes account of the lessons she’s learned from the roles that have most defined her…She urges us to do the same, to dig deep and personal, to value, to commit, and to act.” Barnes&Noble.com
“Warren is a warrior for the common person and…ardently delineates the practical applications behind her innovative solutions…This is Warren in depth, up close, and very personal, and a must-read for…everyone interested in humane and just political action.” Booklist (starred review)
“Famous for being chided for ‘persisting’ on the Senate floor…Warren’s common-sensical proposals on housing, infrastructure development, and civil rights merit attention, and her book makes for a sometimes funny, sometimes sharp-tongued pleasure. A lively and thoughtful memoir that, one hopes, will inspire readers to pursue activism in every realm of society.” Kirkus Reviews
