Summary: Interesting, but very brief
Review: Although this friendly paperback is about 250 pages, 120 of these are just summaries of the bills he worked on.This was a nice reference about Lieberman when he was first announced to be Gore's choice in 2000 for running mate, but now the world needs to see a more in-depth portrait of him. Still, this book is interesting in that it gives us a brief idea of Lieberman's strong moral standards and integrity.
