In Search of Bill Clinton : A Psychological Biography寻找克林顿——著名心理学家对克林顿的心理分析 下载 pdf 电子版 epub 免费 txt 2025

From Publishers Weekly

The language of clinical psychology can convey detachment—or, as in this starstruck study of the 42nd president, gushing admiration. Deploying his trademark diagnosis, Johns Hopkins psychologist Gartner (The Hypomanic Edge) pegs Clinton as a hypomanic personality with boundless energy and charisma, but prone to impulsive appetites and lapses in judgment. The author attributes much of Clinton's psyche to genes (many inherited, he argues, from an illegitimate father he tentatively identifies), but he also embraces Freudian notions: Clinton's relationships with women, Gartner contends, follow a pattern established in childhood when he felt torn between his bossy, Hillaryesque grandmother and his lushly erotic, Monica-like mother. Gartner sometimes overreaches—We can almost see Clinton going through the stages of his relationship with [stepfather] Roger in his approach to Bosnia—but his analysis of Clinton's political talents, right down to his mesmerizing facial expressions while on receiving lines, yields intriguing insights. The author himself unabashedly surrenders to Clinton's magnetism and genius intellect: [H]e has been walking in the footsteps of moral giants, Gartner rhapsodizes about Clinton during an AIDS-relief junket, comparing him to Jesus as a healer of the sick. Nevertheless, Gartner reminds us why this complex figure still fascinates. 17 pages of b&w photos. (Oct.)

What makes Bill Clinton tick? William JeffersonClinton, the 42nd President of the United States is undoubtedly the greatestAmerican enigma of our age -- a dark horse that captured the White House,fell from grace and was resurrected asan elder statesman whose popularity rises and falls based on the day’s sound bytes. John Gartner's In Search of Bill Clinton unravels the mystery at the heart of Clinton’s complex nature and why so many people fall under his spell. He tells the story we allthought we knew, from the fresh viewpoint of a psychologist, as he questions the well-crafted Clinton life story. Gartner, a therapist with an expertise in treating individuals with hypomanic temperaments, saw in Clinton the energy, creativity and charisma that leads a hypomanic individual to success as well as the problems with impulse control and judgment, which frequently result in disastrous decision-making. He knew, though, that if he wanted to find the real Bill Clinton he couldn’t rely on armchair psychology to provide the answer. He knew he had to travel to Arkansas and around the world to talk with those who knewClinton and his family intimately.With his boots on the ground, Gartner uncoverslong-held secrets aboutClinton's mother, theambitious and seductive Virginia Kelley, her wild life in Hot Springs and the ghostly specter of hisbiological father, Bill Blythe, to uncover the truth surroundingClinton’srumor-filled birth. He considers the abusive influence ofClinton's alcoholic stepfather, Roger Clinton, to understand the repeated public abuse he invited both by challenging a hostile Republican Congress and engaging in the clandestine affair with Monica Lewinsky that led to his downfall. Of course, there is no marriage more dissected than that of the Clintons, both in the White House and on the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign trail. Instead of going down familiar paths, Gartner looks at that relationship with a new focus and clearly sees, in Hillary’s molding of Clinton into a more disciplined politician, the figure of Bill Clinton’ssterngrandmother, Edith Cassidy, the woman who set limits on him at an early age. Gartner brings Clinton’s story up to date as he travels to Ireland, the scene of one of Clinton’s greatest diplomatic triumphs, and to Africa, where his work with AIDS victims is unmatched, to understand Clinton’s current humanitarian persona and to find out why he is beloved in so much of the world while still scorned by many at home. John Gartner’s exhaustive trip around the globe provides the richest portrait of Clinton yet, a man who is one of our national obsessions. In Search of Bill Clinton is asurprising and compelling book about a man we all thought we knew.

  哗众取宠的左派无知少女写，空有廉价的同情心，缺乏足够深度的思辨和论证；上来堆砌材料试图证明品牌和产品分离是多么可怕的一件事，第三部分更是直接上阵为工会、最低工资张目，唉

• 常识的力量

  作为电视节目的解说词，这样一本书并没有提供给我们很多新颖的观点，而仅仅重申了最基本的常识。当一个人稍微有了些阅读量以后，那些基本的论点就不再能满足他的大脑，就会渐渐倾向于各种奇谈怪论，各种声称能解释几百年历史的阴谋论。

  但实际上，这个世界并不没有按照阴谋论方法组织。按照奥卡姆剃刀的原则，我们并不需要一个操纵整个世界的组织。我们喜欢这样一个组织，是因为我们的思维喜欢因果论。但在社会科学中，其实并不存在这样一个大一统的因果论——即使在自然科学中，这样的理论也仍在研究中，是否真的存在还不好说。

  程朱理学的“知难行易”，可以成为了书斋中许多人的精神支柱。但现实世界中，知未必难，行未必易，只有投身其中，才能发挥作用。《公司的力量》，就是告诉我们，公司在理论与实际的相互作用中滚滚前进。读书人真正需要的，是“知行合一”。
