The article presents information about the book "Inventing Al Gore," by Bill Turque. With this book, Turque, a correspondent for "Newsweek, presents a straightforward and occasionally engaging biography of the U.S. Vice President, a book that has more heft than the slapdash compaign bios that often pop out of reporters' notebooks in election years. But Turque's book is no life-and-times chronicle, for U.S. Vice-President Al Gore depicted here, was never emblematic of the world around him. There is no criticism of Turque but a comment on Gore.
