As a child in small-town Oklahoma, Elizabeth Warren yearned to go to college and then become an elementary school teacher - an ambitious goal, given her family's modest means. Early marriage and motherhood seemed to put even that dream out of reach, but fifteen years later she was a distinguished law professor with a deep understanding of why people go bankrupt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThen came the phone call that changed her life - could she come to Washington DC to help advise Congress on rewriting the bankruptcy laws? Thus began an impolite education into the bare-knuckled, often dysfunctional ways of Washington. She fought for better bankruptcy laws for ten years and lost. She tried to hold the federal government accountable during the financial crisis but became a target of the big banks. She came up with the idea for a new agency designed to protect consumers from predatory bankers and was denied the opportunity to run it. Finally, at age 62, she decided to run for elective office and won the most competitive - and watched - Senate race in the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this passionate, funny, rabble-rousing book, Warren shows why she has chosen to fight tooth and nail for the middle class - and why she has become a hero to all those who believe that America's government can and must do better for working families.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe New York Review of Books\u003c\/em\u003e notes: 'As a politician and activist, Warren's great strength is that she retains the outsider's perspective, and the outsider's sense of moral outrage ...She's an indomitable battler for the underdog, and she doesn't take no for an answer.'\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBooklist\u003c\/em\u003e (starred review) praises the book as 'A passionate memoir of one woman's personal story and the larger story of corruption in financial circles and the need for reform that balances the interests of the American middle class against those of the corporate section ...Warren offers a behind-the-scenes look at the political dealmaking and head-butting machinations in efforts to restore the nation's financial system.'\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Washington Post\u003c\/em\u003e comments, 'Ultimately, the book's message is that one person can make a difference ...After reading this book, it is comforting to know that Elizabeth Warren, with her passion, anger and bluntness, will not be silenced.'\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGretchen Morgenson of \u003cem\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/em\u003e states: 'Revealing ...
