" I just finished your book and really enjoyed it. From someone who supervised Model UN for nearly 10 years, I can say that your book is the most refreshing work I've encountered on the subject that's geared toward undergrad students. You write with stunning clarity, and the book is engaging, intellectually stimulating.
I especially like the chapter topics -- US-UN relations, chapters on negotiation, public speaking, writing, etiquette, etc. Also, you fold in important info nicely (the Charter, etc.), and, you provide good, manageable "snapshots" from history. Finally, the illustrations necessarily depict the diversity of our world community. I can see how this book would be invaluable for preparing students for Model UN and maintaining the initiative."
