Reviews

  • [A] brilliant essay.

    Pierre HassnerCritique 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 TonkinThe Independent
  • A well-researched, thorough and readable account.
