The arms race continues to turn resources and priorities away from internationaldevelopment. Diminishing aid programs, growing Third World debt, a population that may reach 10billion people in the foreseeable future in spite of all efforts to control it, increasing divisionof the world into pro-US and pro-Soviet camps - these are the dangers Willy Brandt feels can leadnot only to greater world poverty and famine but also to world conflict.In this strongly wordedbook, Brandt goes beyond the diplomatic role he has formerly played and describes major problemsplaguing the globe today, as well as solutions for them. From personal observation and experience,Brandt demonstrates that the West has failed to meet today's challenges and delivers a frankcriticism of the Reagan administration's policies - or lack of them.Willy Brandt, chancellor of theFederal Republic of Germany from 1969 to 1974, has been a member of the European Parliament since1979. Among his many awards were the Nobel Peace Prize in 1971 and the Albert Einstein Peace Prizein 1985. He is the author (with Anthony Sampson) of North-South: A Program for Survival, and TheCommon Crisis North-South: Cooperation for World Recovery (both MIT Press paperbacks).
In 1993 We're Back was in theaters. It is my favorite book also , my favorite movie. It was funny and I laughed ,when I read it. It was just great ,everyone should read it. I like the part when all the Dinasaurs screamed, cause they didn't want to get in trouble.
fascinating for kids, entertaining for parents

My five year old son loves this book and I've read it to him many times. It's about a group of dinosaurs transported to modern New York and their adventures in the city.What I especially like about the book is that the humor makes an adult smile and I don't mind reading it repeatedly.
