"This is not only a book to be studied by every politician and public servant with responsibility for foreign affairs - and hence the preservation of peace - but a valuable source of reference and inspiration for the student of world politics, humanitarianism and military endeavors. Those in commerce and industry who seek to meet the demands of an increasingly troubled world market, suffering as it does from the consequences of inter- and intra-state conflict, will also find much food for thought."--BOOK JACKET.
