THIS BOOK IS INTERESTING, INFORMATIVE, WELL-WRITTEN AND VERY TIMELY. WHETHER WE IN THE UNITED STATES LIKE IT OR NOT, THE THREAT OF POSSIBLE MILITARY INTERVENTION AND SANCTIONS NO LONGER INTIMIDATES ROGUE NATIONS INTO ABIDING BY THE EXACT WISHES OF DEMOCRATIC GOVERNMENTS AND INSTITUTIONS. JIMMY CARTER BELIEVES IN FACE-TO-FACE DIALOGUE AND KEEPING LINES OF COMMUNICATION OPEN WHENEVER HUMANLY POSSIBLE. THERE MAY BE LITTLE OTHER RECOURSE IN THE MODERN ARENA.

THAT IS WHAT THIS IMPORTANT BOOK IS ALL ABOUT.
Carter is willing to listen first, and then offer legitimate compromise

A powerful book about a man who truly understands how to deal with our world enemies. He's not afraid to "look meek" if it will accomplish fair and honest opportunities for discussions about our differences and concerns. His knowledge on "atomic" matters is unmatched for a world leader. Carter gets the job done while letting the enemy save face.
