"A fascinating account of one of the great men of our times." The New York Times Book Review "Masterly . . . [Kaufman] is a likable and intelligent narrator who writes with both insight and compassion."

Salon "Kaufman's biography of Soros meets a higher truth standard than most . . . A compelling narrative notable for its candor and breadth." The Plain Dealer "What's memorable about Kaufman's biography is its exploration of Soros as a man who satisfied his contemplative side not by making money but by finding visionary ways to spend it." Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "The enthralling story of an extraordinary individual. . . . Rewarding reading on several levelsas an adventure story, as food for serious philosophical speculation, and as a peek into the world of high financial wheeling and dealing." Fort Worth Star-Telegram "Surprisingly even-handed. . . . A thoughtful analysis on the complex intersection of wealth and compassion." Pittsburgh Post-Gazette "Engaging. . . .To call Soros complex is an understatement. . . . Clearly written and thoroughly researched."

Synopsis
A penniless émigré who made a fortune and became one of the great philanthropists of the twentieth century, George Soros has led a remarkable life. This biography brings forth his story in unprecedented depth, from his childhood as a Jew in occupied Budapest during World War II to his conquests on Wall Street and the establishment of his philanthropic Open Society foundations. Soros offers exclusive glimpses at an often misunderstood man, revealing a shy character whose own struggle to escape the Nazis left him with the adamant belief that people of the world are entitled to live without the fear of oppression. Enigmatic, contradictory, and inspiring, George Soros is one of the most intriguing and globally influential men of our time. In this accomplished biography, written with Soros's cooperation, Michael T. Kaufman fully illuminates the man, his motivations, and his legacy., A penniless migr who made a fortune and became one of the great philanthropists of the twentieth century, George Soros has led a remarkable life.

    Great seller. Book arrived within a reasonable time frame and was packaged in a protective wrapping. The condition of the book was "Very Good," as was described and includes a "Very Good" dust jacket with award stickers. Great value, extremely fair price. I'm always happy to do business with this trusted seller.

    You can’t always be sure when an item is listed “like new” but this seller delivered a book that is just that. I’m very pleased with the condition of the book and the pricing was excellent compared to other sellers online. It was packaged extremely well and arrived with no wrinkles or folded areas. I made a great purchase and I now look forward to purchasing additional items by this author from this seller. 10/10 satisfaction!

    After two poor experiences with this seller, they exceeded my expectations with this order…hard to believe it was the same seller. The book purchased, identified in their listing as “Very Good”, was, in fact, “Like New”. The price was very fair. Shipping was slow, but that seems to be true with many things purchased in the internet. If I have a complaint, it is that the seller will not respond to specific questions about a listed item before the purchase..too many orders to do so! 🙁
