Reviews

Political Science Quarterly: refreshingly emphasizes the positive as it assesses the United Nations an easily digestible and felicitous read especially revealing excerpts The Diplomacy of Hope is an informative book written from the perspective of a man who has an insider's knowledge of how the UN works and a largely uncritical faith in the good works and hopeful prospects of the world organization. -Colin Archer, Secretary-General, International Peace Bureau An excellent book, written with style and humanity. Gives one a rare personal insight into the workings of the UN. Bowles never allows himself to despair at the vast gap between what should, and what is, being done in the world. He guides us carefully through the UN labyrinth, eyes wide open. I hope this book will find its way into every school library.
