In 2005, two tragedies--the Asian tsunami and Hurricane Katrina--turned CNN reporter Anderson Cooper into a media celebrity. Dispatches from the Edge, Cooper's memoir of "war, disasters and survival," is a brief but powerful chronicle of Cooper's ascent to stardom and his struggle with his own tragedies and demons. Cooper was 10 years old when his father, Wyatt Cooper, died during heart bypass surgery. He was 20 when his beloved older brother, Carter, committed suicide by jumping off his mother's penthouse balcony (his mother, by the way, being Gloria Vanderbilt). The losses profoundly affected Cooper, who fled home after college to work as a freelance journalist for Channel One, the classroom news service. Covering tragedies in far-flung places like Burma, Vietnam, and Somalia, Cooper quickly learned that "as a journalist, no matter ... how respectful you are, part of your brain remains focused on how to capture the horror you see, how to package it, present it to others." Cooper's description of these horrors, from war-ravaged Baghdad to famine-wracked Niger, is poignant but surprisingly unsentimental. In Niger, Cooper writes, he is chagrined, then resigned, when he catches himself looking for the "worst cases" to commit to film. "They die, I live. It's the way of the world," he writes. In the final section of Dispatches, Cooper describes covering Hurricane Katrina, the story that made him famous. The transcript of his showdown with Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu (in which Cooper tells Landrieu people in New Orleans are "ashamed of what is happening in this country right now") is worth the price of admission on its own. Cooper's memoir leaves some questions unanswered--there's frustratingly little about his personal life, for example--but remains a vivid, modest self-portrait by a man who is proving himself to be an admirable, courageous leader in a medium that could use more like him. --Erica C.

柴靜那本講述央視十年曆程的自傳《看見》,可以說是曾經打在每一個中國人心坎上的一本書。 作者性質的成長告白,不僅是自我的剖析,更是社會變遷的備忘錄。 在大量的新聞報道裏,她沒有可以選擇標誌性的大事件,而是記錄瞭那些留給她強烈生命印象的人與事。 《看見》是我們大多...
評分讓一個感情豐富的人,去看新聞聯播的最後五分鍾——去看世界另一邊、我們的邊緣的那個社會,完全以另一個維度行進著:無窮盡的戰爭、飢荒、死亡。 故事的主角當然也是人。 可我猜測他會不會像我一樣,無法掩飾內心昭然若揭的冷漠。對那些死亡沒有深層的同情、沒有深層的不解,...
評分我原以為這是一本冷靜客觀抽離地看苦難看死亡的書,看之前的期待是希望作者給到一些評論,讓我學會從邊緣看世界中心。然而看完纔發現,原來所有人都一樣,麵對這些無解的事情根本無法抽身而齣。不是每件事都能分析齣前因後果列齣1234。事情發生瞭,就發生瞭,人死瞭,就...
評分父親過世那年我十歲,那沉默的打擊重啓瞭我人生的時鍾。至於在那之前的事情,我已經記不起來多少瞭,隻有一些碎片,如同尖銳的碎玻璃一樣散落在我的記憶中。我記得,我床邊的桌子上放著一颱舊地球儀,那時候的我五六歲吧。那是母親送給我的禮物,她是從《走齣非洲》的作者伊薩...
評分在打開這本書之前,我本以為這是一本災難與戰爭的記錄;講述作者親眼所見的那些被戰爭和自然災害所摧殘的人的痛苦。但我發現,這其實是作者本人的迴憶錄。 在一次次報道中,他迴憶他快樂的童年、他父親的逝世以及哥哥的自殺對他造成的影響、他內心的痛苦與焦慮、以及他是如何通...
