New Haven: Yale University Press, 1998. Second printing [stated]. Hardcover. [8], 191, [1] pages., Notes. Index. Signed with comment on the title page: Best wishes from Abba Eban. Has chapters on A Credentials Ceremony; September 15, 1950; The Cold War Remembered; Dilemmas of Diplomats; The Perils of Analogy; Human Rights Seldom Win; The Intrusive Media; Where--If Not at the Summit?; Still Too Many Wars; The United Nations: No New Order. Eban concludes with thoughts about the quest for peace in the Middle East. In this wise and eloquent book, one of the world's preeminent senior statesmen presents his views on the challenges of diplomacy in the post Cold War era. Abba Eban draws on his years of experience and knowledge to offer an overview of diplomacy as practices in today's world. Interweaving historical data with personal reminiscences, Eban reviews the Cold War period and its end in 1989, praising the diplomatic restraint in the years that have followed; discusses the ethical confrontation between power an conscience in a range of international decisions and actions; and points out the difficulty of reconciling the promotion of human rights with respect for national sovereignty. Eban goes on to deplore the lack of privacy in international negotiations that is the result of an intrusive media, and shows that nuclear warfare is not a restraint. Instructive, erudite, and witty, Eban's tour through diplomatic history vividly demonstrates that the wisdom of the past can be immensely valuable as we seek to negotiate and maintain peace in the future.

In 1938, Schwarz emigrated to the USA and changed his name to Martin Ebon. During World War II, he served in the U.S. Office of War Information (formed June 1942), the U.S. Department of State (as an information officer), and by 1948 had joined the staff of Partisan Review magazine. In January 1948, Ebon published his first book in English, World Communism Today, which reviewed a century of Marxism, following the publication of the Communist Manifesto by Marx and Engels in 1848. Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr. praised the book as an "outstanding work on communist penetration and strategy." The book was cited as an expert source. His July 1948 article "Communist Tactics in Palestine" in the Middle East Journal received a favorably review as "carefully documented" and "objective and non-partisan." More
