YESTERDAY’S MAN: THE CASE AGAINST JOE BIDEN
Book ID/图书代码： 13850020C00292
English Summary/英文概要： A deep dive into Joe Biden’s history and the origins of his political valuesYesterday’s Man exposes the forgotten history of Joe Biden, one of the United States’s longest-serving politicians, and one of its least scrutinized.
Over nearly fifty years in politics, the man called “Middle-Class Joe” served as a key architect of the Democratic Party’s rightward turn, ushering in the end of the liberal New Deal order and enabling the political takeover of the radical right.
Far from being a liberal stalwart, Biden often outdid even Reagan, Gingrich, and Bush, assisting the right-wing war against the working class, and ultimately paving the way for Trump.
The most comprehensive political biography of someone who has tried for decades to be president, Yesterday’s Man is an essential read for anyone interested in knowing the real Joe Biden and what he might do in office.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 拜登是美國政治生涯時間最長的政治家之一，卻也是受到最少審視的政治家之一。
本書揭露了拜登（Joe Biden）被遺忘的歷史，帶我們看見在他將近50年的政治生涯中，這位人稱「中產喬」的人如何擔任民主黨向右傾的關鍵設計師，並迎來了新自由主義自由秩序的終結，並實現了對激進右派的政治接管。
拜登不僅不是自由主義者，甚至還經常超越雷根、金瑞契和布希，為打壓勞工階級的右翼戰爭提供幫助，最終導致了川普的崛起。
本書是對這位為了爭取總統之位嘗試了數十年的人最全面的政治傳記，對於任何有興趣了解真正的喬·拜登的人來說，都是必讀的書。

—Krystal Ball, Hill.TV host
“A remarkably elegant and penetrating portrait of the entirety of Joe Biden’s career from a young writer to watch.”
—Rick Perlstein, author of Nixonland: The Rise of a President and the Fracturing of America
