The final part of Charles Moore's bestselling and definitive biography of Britain's first female Prime Minister, 'One of the great biographical achievements of our times' (Sunday Times) A TIMES, SUNDAY TIMES, FINANCIAL TIMES, TELEGRAPH, IRISH TIMES, NEW STATESMAN AND SPECTATOR BOOK OF THE YEAR How did Margaret Thatcher change and divide Britain? How did her model of combative female leadership help shape the way we live now? How did the woman who won the Cold War and three general elections in succession find herself pushed out by her own MPs? Charles Moore's full account, based on unique access to Margaret Thatcher herself, her papers and her closest associates, tells the story of her last period in office, her combative retirement and the controversy that surrounded her even in death. It includes the Fall of the Berlin Wall which she had fought for and the rise of the modern EU which she feared. It lays bare her growing quarrels with colleagues and reveals the truth about her political assassination. Moore's three-part biography of Britain's most important peacetime prime minister paints an intimate political and personal portrait of the victories and defeats, the iron will but surprising vulnerability of the woman who dominated in an age of male power. This is the full, enthralling story.

With unequaled authority and dramatic detail, the first volume of Charles Moore's authorized biography of Margaret Thatcher reveals as never before the early life, rise to power, and initial period as prime minister of the woman who transformed Britain and the world in the late twentieth century. Moore illuminates Thatcher's youth--her relationship with her parents and early romantic attachments, including her courtship and marriage to Denis Thatcher--moving forward to the determination and boldness that marked even the very beginning of her political career. His account of her political relationship with Ronald Reagan is riveting. Throughout Moore explores in compelling detail the obstacles and indignities that Thatcher encountered as a woman in what was still overwhelmingly a man's world. A clear-eyed, fair account, conveying Thatcher's remarkable talents and sometimes infuriating qualities, Moore's portrait enlivens the woman who was prime minister for more than a decade (1979-1990), re-creating the circumstances and experiences that shaped one of the most significant world leaders of the postwar era.

Życie Margaret Thatcher niezmiennie konfunduje filozofów. Na początku pierwszego tomu tej biografii zauważyłem, że zastanowiłaby nawet Sokratesa. Jego dictum, że „bezmyślnym życiem żyć człowiekowi nie warto” na pewno jej nie dotyczy. Zadziwiłaby także Francisa Bacona, który rzekł: „Droga na szczyt wiedzie krętymi schodami”. Jej wspinaczka zaczęła się niżej – i dlatego mierzyła wyżej – niż rozpoczynali jej poprzednicy, lecz szła w górę drogą tak prostą, jak to było możliwe. I chociaż bywała z pewnością bardziej przebiegła w trudnych sytuacjach, niż chciałaby przyznać, rzadko zbaczała ze swej ścieżki. Mężczyzna wspinający się krętymi schodami nie myśli, co jest za zakrętem. Kobieta przebijająca się na szczyt, żeby tam się utrzymać, ma cel zawsze przed oczami. Ją pchały ku górze olbrzymia ambicja i żarliwa wiara w możliwości wolnego kraju. Na szczycie wywalczyła dość czasu, żeby podjąć dzieło uwolnienia potencjału swojego państwa i zrealizować większość swojej wizji. Ta książka pokazuje ją na szczycie, być może bardziej dominującą niż jakikolwiek jej poprzednik w czasach pokoju i bardziej znaną na scenie światowej niż jakikolwiek brytyjski premier, z wyjątkiem Winstona Churchilla.

L'architecture américaine d'aujourd'hui représente une histoire orale provocatrice de l'architecture américaine récente, tirée d'une série d'entretiens à bâtons rompus que Barbaralee Diamonstein, écrivain, éditeur, enseignante et interviewer à la télévision a conduits avec quatorze architectes renommés. Ces conversations publiques, toujours riches en informations et souvent amusantes, ont été, à l'origine, enregistrées par vidéo à la New School for Social Research/Parsons School of Design. Le travail de chacun des architectes y est examiné ; les sujets évoqués dans ces entretiens comprennent : l'impact de l'architecture sur la vie urbaine, les réglementations gouvernementales et de zoning, la consommation d'énergie, le recyclage, la conservation historique, 'le sens du lieu', les systèmes économiques de logement, les relations entre l'architecture et les arts et les implications du 'post-modernisme'.
