On Power by Robert Caro
An incisive reflection on the nature of political power, distilled from decades of investigative reporting and biography, exploring how it is acquired, wielded, and the consequences it has on ordinary lives. Through vivid episodes involving a city-shaping master builder and a nation-shaping president, it exposes the gap between public image and private leverage, the backrooms where decisions are forged, and the relentless research required to hold leaders to account, ultimately arguing that understanding power is essential to understanding democracy.
