Abstract

With a forward by Elie Wiesel, arguably the world's most well‐known survivor of genocidal persecution, this volume on prevention appropriately begins with a resounding endorsement for its illustrious author: “No one is better qualified to show, as he does in this lucid and well‐documented book, what to do, what non‐violent process to use, in order to stop a menace whose deadly shadow already broods over the newborn 21st century” (p. viii). Indeed, Dr Hamburg's credentials and extraordinary career qualify him to be a one‐man think tank. Currently, he is DeWitt Wallace Distinguished Scholar at Weill Cornell Medical College and he has been a professor at both Stanford University and Harvard University. He was President of the Carnegie Corporation and President of the Institute of Medicine, National Academy of Sciences, as well as President of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He has received the highest award from the National Academy of Sciences and is also a recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Along with Cyrus Vance, he co‐chaired the Carnegie Commission on Preventing Deadly Conflict from 1994 to 1999 and has authored many books including No More Killing Fields in 2002.
