En esta conmovedora autobiografía, Sidney Poitier, un verdadero icono americano, reflexiona sobre su vida y su carrera. Poitier atribuye a sus padres y a su infancia en la pequeña isla Cat en las Bahamas el haberle proporcionado un sentido inquebrantable del bien y del mal y de la autoestima que nunca ha abandonado y que ha moldeado drásticamente su mundo. En este libro, Poitier explora la naturaleza del sacrificio y el compromiso, el precio y la humildad, la rabia y el perdón, y el precio que se paga por la integridad artística. Lo que emerge es la imagen de un hombre frente a los límites, los suyos propios y los del mundo. Un triunfo del espíritu, 'The Measure of a Man' captura la esencia de Poitier.

Sidney Poitier was a Bahamian-American actor, film director, activist, and diplomat. In 1964, he was the first black actor and first Bahamian to win the Academy Award for Best Actor. Among his other accolades are two competitive Golden Globe Awards, a BAFTA Award and a Grammy Award, in addition to nominations for two Emmy Awards and a Tony Award. In 1999, he was ranked number 22 among the "American Film Institute's 100 Stars". Poitier was one of the last surviving stars from the Golden Age of Hollywood.
