Reviews

  • [A] brilliant essay.

    Pierre Hassner,  Critique Internationale

  • [A] brilliantly compact expose of the twentieth-century diplomat’s favourite folly. In this small gem of a book, Kumar places the West’s multicultural solution to the Bosnian war in a long, inglorious line of botched partitions.

    Boyd Tonkin,  The Independent

  • A well-researched, thorough and readable account.

    Shashi Tharoor, Executive Assistant to the Secretary General, UN
