Very informative but pretty dry
The book is a collection of essays concerning various aspects of Soros’s background and career(s). Some of the chapters are probably more detailed than casual readers will like, but the authors are excellent, very reliable commentators. I bought the book partly to understand why Soros has become a bogeyman for right-wing critics, and I think the book would benefit from one chapter dealing directly with that topic. Still, overall it’s a very informative volume.
