it was amazing
Read from July 25 to 26, 2016

Extremely well written, to the point, and scarily pertinent.
It encouraged me to broaden my perspective. As she wrote multiple times in the book "The world cannot be understood from a single point of view."
It also encouraged me to take more personal responsibility. She quotes Woodrow Wilson: "Self-government is not a mere form of institution, to be had when desired, if only proper pains be taken. It is a form of character. It follows upon the long discipline which gives a people self-possession, self-mastery, the habit of order and peace and common counsel and a reverence for law which will not fail when they themselves become makes of law: the steadiness and self-control of political maturity. And these things cannot be had without long discipline."
All in all, I highly recommend reading this book; it's definitely worth the (not very long) time it took to read it.
