About this book

Walter Isaacson's biography examines Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and the lasting influence of his ideas. By 1973, when Kissinger became secretary of state, Gallup polling showed him as the most admired person in America, though he was simultaneously criticized by liberal intellectuals and conservative activists. The biography explores how Kissinger's personality shaped his approach to foreign policy. Isaacson conducted extensive interviews with Kissinger and 150 other sources, including US presidents and business clients, and drew on Kissinger's private papers and classified memos. The narrative traces Kissinger's life from his childhood as a persecuted Jew in Nazi Germany, through his relationship with Richard Nixon, to his later work as a business consultant.
