In this collection Justice Ginsburg discusses gender equality, the workings of the Supreme Court, being Jewish, law and lawyers in opera, and the value of looking beyond US shores when interpreting the US Constitution. Throughout her life Justice Ginsburg has been (and continues to be) a prolific writer and public speaker. This book’s sampling is selected by Justice Ginsburg and her authorized biographers Mary Hartnett and Wendy W. Williams, who introduce each chapter and provide biographical context and quotes gleaned from hundreds of interviews they have conducted.
The New York Times bestselling book from Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg—“a comprehensive look inside her brilliantly analytical, entertainingly wry mind, revealing the fascinating life of one of our generation's most influential voices in both law and public opinion” (Harper’s Bazaar).
My Own Words “showcases Ruth Ginsburg’s astonishing intellectual range” (The New Republic).
Witty, engaging, serious, and playful, My Own Words is a fascinating glimpse into the life of one of America’s most influential women and “a tonic to the current national discourse” (The Washington Post).
Words could paint pictures, I learned from him. Choosing the right word, and the right word order, he illustrated, could make an enormous difference in conveying an image or an idea. (查看原文)

Although not the most exciting, Ginsburg's writing perfectly captures the principles of clarity, elegance and humanity. This book serves as a great addition to Notorious RBG。读的时候时常惊叹于她写作的功底，但个人还是更喜欢Marty的文字，那种深入骨髓的幽默和对于人生的轻松，实在太难得了。(展开)

全书主要选取了Justice Ginsburg的文章和演讲，展现她对平权、公平、联邦/州政府、国会及最高院的职责等问题的看法，以及对法治的信心和信仰。全书分为五个部分。Part1比较普通；Part2-4有一些非常有意思的法案。作者用简练的语言表达了不同人/机构对这些案件的看法和判决时的逻辑。Part5 阐述司法独立的重要性和反对意见的意义。全书最喜欢的三个案例：VMI和VWIL的区别；Ledbet... 全书主要选取了Justice Ginsburg的文章和演讲，展现她对平权、公平、联邦/州政府、国会及最高院的职责等问题的看法，以及对法治的信心和信仰。全书分为五个部分。Part1比较普通；Part2-4有一些非常有意思的法案。作者用简练的语言表达了不同人/机构对这些案件的看法和判决时的逻辑。Part5 阐述司法独立的重要性和反对意见的意义。全书最喜欢的三个案例：VMI和VWIL的区别；Ledbetter v.

一本比较驳杂的集子，前面关于个人经历和general的topics都很好，后半部分涉及法学专业的稿子我都是囫囵着听的，未求甚解，惭愧。RBG还是很有个人魅力的，和life partner &best friend Martin的关系也是神仙眷侣，令人神往。书中有一篇Martin的演讲，幽默风趣，大方得体，非常有意思。

不是自传 而是通过RBG一生中的重要时刻重要文件来重新认识这位伟大女性

talking about role model, talking about relationship goal...I challenge anyone to disagree that RBG is notoriously perfect in both departments.

不是一本好读的书（字面意思，涉及到法律的部分需要非常仔细地去阅读），但是是一本能让人从中汲取能量的书。在阅读的过程中，我好几次都有被书中女性的力量所震撼到，也反复问自己，究竟怎样才能拥有如RBG和其他优秀女性一样的坚韧特质。希望我可以在不远的未来找到答案。

还没看过notorious rbg，这本书读起来有点难受，第一部份opera看着很无聊。还没读完来看评价，有点怕了

打分只针对个人看书体验，不针对作者本人。以我法律门外汉的背景和词汇量普通的英文，读起来经常卡壳，终于不卡壳了的部分又感觉是反复坠述

真的不知道怎么形容，看完这本书真的太难了，完全不让人感兴趣。感觉这位法官是个性格强硬的人，或者说这九位法官都是这样的人，他们对于世界的认知都有自己定型的看法，一场官司的争论是不会改变他们的看法的。他们掌握的权力让他们觉得，为了他们认为正确的大局，适当的错误是可以容忍的，不可避免的。在他们的世界里，应该没有简单的对错之分，任何一件事情都是不同利益人群的冲突，看法官本人与哪个阶层更能引发共鸣罢了。

我听的是有声版，质量并不是很高，相对于RBG的其他书籍而言没那么平易近人，我还是建议大家从notorious RBG开始看起，这本辅助。越来越觉得RBG和MMC（我同事）好像啊，就方方面面的😌
