About the book

United Nations

With four new chapters, this updated edition of United Nations: A History completes the story of the UN’s last sixty-five years, its successes and turbulent past.

"This is a definitive account of the United Nations for a general audience, told by a master." —Jim Hoagland, The Washington Post

United Nations: A History begins with its creation in 1945. Although the organization was created to prevent war, many conflicts have arisen, ranging from the Korean War, to the Six-Day War, to genocide in Bosnia and Rwanda. Stanley Meisler's in-depth research examines the crises and many key political leaders. In this second edition, Meisler brings his popular history up to date with accounts of the power struggles of the last fifteen years, specifically spotlighting the terms of secretaries-general Boutros Boutros-Ghali, Kofi Annan, and Ban Ki-moon. This is an important, riveting, and impartial guide through the past and recent events of the sixty-five-year history of the United Nations.

"Balanced and insightful, this book is a must for anyone who wants to understand where the U.N. has been and, more importantly, how we might best use its potential for the future." —Thomas R. Pickering, former US ambassador to the UN
