Presents a story of the charismatic Chris Gardner - a once homeless father who raised and cared for his son on the mean streets of San Francisco and went on to become a crown prince of Wall Street.

Soon to be a major motion picture starring Will Smith, "The Pursuit of Happyness" is the inspiring, rags-to-riches story of the charismatic Chris Gardner - a once homeless father who raised and cared for his son on the mean streets of San Francisco and went on to become a crown prince of Wall Street. At the age of twenty, Milwaukee native Chris Gardner, just out of the Navy, arrived in San Francisco to pursue a promising career in medicine. Considered a prodigy in scientific research, he surprised everyone and himself by setting his sights on the competitive world of high finance. Yet no sooner had he landed an entry level position at a prestigious firm, Gardner found himself caught in a web of incredibly challenging circumstances that left him homeless with his toddler son. Instead of giving in to despair, the two spent almost a year moving from shelters, "HO-tels", and soup-lines, even sleeping in the public restroom of a subway station - ultimately making an astonishing transformation from the bathroom to the boardroom.

评分没看出什么情怀和真理,不懂为何上了#1 New York Times Bestseller
评分小伙子给人一种逆袭的感觉。比电影更甚。
评分......拖了几乎半年才断断续续读完,原来电影只是截取了很小的一段,改编得很棒。
评分好不容易买到了,却忙得连翻一页的时间都没有,恸哭~~~~
评分《In Pursuit of Happyness》是我最喜欢的电影,看了书才发现,电影只是截取了书的一小部分改编的。 书里用了大量的篇幅描写了作者童年青少年及成年初期的生活经历,作者很诚实,描写了自己很多混乱的,做错事的经历。这给了我很深的思考,任何事情真的都有两面性,如果能正确的对待痛苦和错误,那么它们也可是是你成长的driving force。 另外,Chris的妈妈的教育起到了很大的作用,给Chris树立了相信自己的信念。在Chris怀疑一切时,给了Chris答案。并且,Chris真的是一个good Papa!
