具体描述
Chiang Ching-kuo, son and political heir of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, was born in 1910, when Chinese women, nearly all illiterate, hobbled about on bound feet and men wore pigtails as symbols of subservience to the Manchu Dynasty. In his youth Ching-kuo was a Communist and a Trotskyite, and he lived twelve years in Russia. He died in 1988 as the leader of Taiwan, a Chinese society with a flourishing consumer economy and a budding but already wild, woolly, and open democracy. He was an actor in many of the events of the last century that shaped the history of China's struggles and achievements in the modern era: the surge of nationalism among Chinese youth, the grand appeal of Marxism-Leninism, the terrible battle against fascist Japan, and the long, destructive civil war between the Nationalists and the Communists. In 1949, he fled to Taiwan with his father and two million Nationalists. He led the brutal suppression of dissent on the island and was a major player in the cold, sometimes hot war between Communist China and America. By reacting to changing economic, social, and political dynamics on Taiwan, Sino-American rapprochement, Deng Xiaoping's sweeping reforms on the mainland, and other international events, he led Taiwan on a zigzag but ultimately successful transition from dictatorship to democracy.
Jay Taylor underscores the interaction of political developments on the mainland and in Taiwan and concludes that if China ever makes a similar transition, it will owe much to the Taiwan example and the Generalissimo's son.

读后感
二十世纪号称中国四大传记，我读过二本，林语堂写的苏东坡，梁启超写的李鸿章，觉得都不错。朱东润的张居正，吴晗的朱元璋，据说差一点，还没有读。其他的传记也读过一些，国内建国以后的，满纸谎言，自不必说，国外的，写得好，真实而又有趣的也不多。 这个周一，在南京太平...
评分抗战期间在赣南成绩斐然，在一个污浊的政府中渡辟一条清洁高效的地方。多次将四大家族的后裔拉下马，驱逐上海黑帮势力，挽救危局于水火。 一生为官清廉，在台湾当太子的时候还常常去自己排队买电影票看电影，到饭店吃饭。而且竟然有一次自己晚上开车溜达时把一个陌生人送回家...
评分早在1950年代，台湾的省辖市市长就是选举产生的，党外人士高玉树分别在1954、1964两度当选台北市长。首府一把手居然不是自己同志，国民党大佬们觉得很没面子（可见选举过程应该还算公正），于是力促将台北升级为直辖市，这样就可以不用选了。总统蒋介石同意了，旋即任命高玉树...
评分2010-12-27 旺報 【胡勇／上海市．博士生】 下決心從書店買回了陶涵（Jay Taylor）的《蔣經國傳》大陸版中譯本。剛拜讀了陶涵新著《蔣介石與現代中國的奮鬥》的台灣版中譯本，而大陸版的《蔣經國傳》直接從台灣引進，同樣出自林添貴先生的譯筆，且號稱「最新版·全譯本...
评分之前看过台湾版的，很喜欢。 很值得了解的人，很好的一本书，值得收藏。 蒋经国是一个很值得了解的人物。他的一生充满了大的抉择，而这些抉择影响着近现代中国的历史，以及两岸的关系。 这本书比较客观，也比较独到地分析了作为历史人物的蒋经国。对了解中国...

阿弛的推荐，幸亏在加拿大。
评分英文版非常好看！线索清晰，巨细恰当，讲述了中国一个时代伟人的故事。
评分是非成败转头空，青山依旧在，几度夕阳红。
评分蒋家两代伟人，一脉相承，对比大陆，蒋介石在台湾建立了“模范社会”，经国进一步把它进化为真正的民主。 蒋经国1988年去世，让大部分中国人错过的最后也是最近的一个民主契机。 马英九继承了经国的理想，台湾现在是昏暗大陆边上的一站自由明灯，虽然中国人的未来依旧渺茫，姑且只能寄希望于他。
评分光抓人你已经被告多少次了？我想尽办法跟中常会解释，说你刚从苏联回来还不习惯国内那一套，你还到处抓人，难道你还信奉共产主义？你忘了自己是共产党还是国民党？
