About this book

This book brings together for the first time a large collection of essays (including three new ones) of a leading writer on diplomacy. They challenge the fashionable view that the novel features of contemporary diplomacy are its most important, and use new historical research to explore questions not previously treated in the same systematic manner

Reviews

'[This book] showcases a master in the analysis of modern diplomacy at work. All of the essays are compellingly, wittily and, at times, beautifully written in a way which makes them accessible to the expert and general reader alike. The quality of the book is first class.' Paul Sharp, Professor of Political Science, University of Minnesota Duluth, USA
