This is likely to be a cornerstone of the scholarly literature on the United Nations.... An essential volume. A very welcome addition to the literature on the UN Security Council.... It is of particular value given the excellent quality of the contributors and the fact that they include both academics and practitioners. Indispensablefor students and scholars interested in just about any aspect of the UNSC.
