‘This is by far the most comprehensive one-volume compendium yet published on international
organizations, far more useful and interesting than any simple directory. Clear overviews are
provided of all the main organizations, including many less well known and usually ignored,
interspersed with boxes of key individual and milestone events. Professionals, international
businessmen even diplomats will find this a mine of relevant information, endlessly useful,
especially for the mature comments of well-informed insiders. Students wanting an introduction
to the UN, the development banks or the Bretton Woods Institutions or writing theses on
international organizations will find it a wonderful introduction to a complex and ever more important world.’
