Review
"Important and timely...provides new clarity and adds new information about Iraq...although I know a lot about Iraq, I found new material and interesting thinking. There is no doubt this is an important book...I am particularly impressed by the use of original UN documents and the careful analysis of relevant UN resolutions." -- Denis Halliday, former UN Assistant Secretary-General and head of the UN Humanitarian Programme in Iraq (1997–98)
