An inspiring collection of the personal philosophies of a group of remarkable men and women
Based on the National Public Radio series of the same name, This I Believe features eighty essayists—from the famous to the unknown—completing the thought that begins the book’s title. Each piece compels readers to rethink not only how they have arrived at their own personal beliefs but also the extent to which they share them with others.
Featuring a well-known list of contributors—including Isabel Allende, Colin Powell, Gloria Steinem, William F. Buckley Jr., Penn Jillette, Bill Gates, and John Updike—the collection also contains essays by a Brooklyn lawyer; a part-time hospital clerk from Rehoboth, Massachusetts; a woman who sells Yellow Pages advertising in Fort Worth, Texas; and a man who serves on the state of Rhode Island’s parole board.
The result is a stirring and provocative trip inside the minds and hearts of a diverse group of people whose beliefs—and the incredibly varied ways in which they choose to express them—reveal the American spirit at its best.

大人物和小人物的生活哲學,50年代美國國傢公共廣播電颱的作品閤集,雖然有心靈雞湯之嫌,但的確是如今越來越碎片化和物質化的生活中所需要的精神食糧。
評分剛開始讀很無聊,不,可以說一直很無聊,完全看不下去演講好嗎。但是,不得不說美利堅之所以真正強大的原因是因為這些形形色色的人擁有著可以是截然不同的想法卻還是敢於錶達,言論自由是真正佩服的地方。
