Reviews

"An enlightening and readable volume."

"An illuminating and authoritative commentary upon the conduct of international relations during this critical era."

"A book like this one, in addition to providing pleasant and informative reading, will perform a useful function by increasing the understanding of the potential achievements and limitations of the diplomatic art."

"[This book] represents a really impressive achievement. Though a collaborative work, it is remarkably even and well-integrated . . . . It is certainly no exaggeration to say that this is the best-informed, most authoritative, and most provocative treatment of diplomatic history presently available for the period indicated."
