Summary:
For years hedge fund tycoon George Soros has been demonized by GOP politicians, fringe outlets, and right-wing media personalities, who claim Soros often manipulates the global economy and masterminds the radical left. He has been accused of 'white genocide,' and paying migrants to seek asylum in the United States. Weaving biography, cultural commentary, and investigative reporting, Tamkin brings into focus the man and his myth to examine how much influence he actually has on politics. Is Soros simply a left-wing version of the Koch brothers? Or is he genuinely trying to make the world a better place? Ultimately, Tamkin asks, can a truly open society exist if any one man can have the kind of power Soros wields? -- adapted from jacket
