The Running Tide: A View of International and Other Public Affairs Over Four Decades
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
From the end of the era of colonialism to the emergence of the global village, these essays record four decades of the working life of one of the nation's foremost public servants. Sir Donald's varied experience covers topics as diverse as Middle Eastern politics, Britain's role in Europe, the challenges facing the United Nations, energy policy, the role of the media, public health and the world wide development of telecommunications. These essays and lectures are written in clear and direct English, free from the jargon and clich that makes inaccessible so much writing on international relations and public affairs. With the underpinning of the author's extensive knowledge of the history and cultures of the world's nations, this collection offers many rewarding insights into 20th century world developments.
