Industry Reviews
"...Kissinger has provided an excellent handbook on diplomatic philosophy and the intricate juggling of interests during negotiations. It will become required reading for students of international relations, history buffs, and lovers of inside-the-Beltway intrigue."
Business Week - Stan Crock (04/12/1999)
"Readers should not be daunted by the size of this book; it is well put together and written, and always lively. It contains fascinating extracts from unpublished documents, verbatim conversation and phone-logs, and will prove a valuable source-book for future historians, as well as a useful guide through the complexities of the problems of those years."
Literary Review - Paul Johnson (06/19/1999)
"With this volume Kissinger concludes what may be the greatest memoir ever written by an American statesman."
Winecoff
"A stupendous achievement...the very comprehensiveness of this account is part of its appeal...genuinely moving."
Winecoff
"Engrossing...simply outclasses the normal fare served up by former people of power...."
