Un excellent livre sur les arcanes de la politique nous dévoilant tour à tour les manoeuvres et bassesses de ceux qui ne rêvent que de pouvoir alors que se jouent des drames personnels qui ne demandaient qu'à se solutionner en privé. de belles réflexions sur la main mise de la politique sur des sujets d'éthique et médicaux et aussi comment on manipule les médias pour servir d'inavouables buts.
