A propos du livre

Revue de presse

should be read by all who have an interest in the conduct of Britain's foreign affairs ... she has buttressed her case with impressive archival research and interviews with surviving participants ... all will be in debt to Anne Deighton's work. (New Statesman and Society)

thorough and perceptive study ... trenchant, insightful account. (European History Quarterly)

The developments she describes will be of lasting historical significance, not only for the forty years of Cold War, which now seems to have come to its conclusion, but for our understanding of Britain's relationship with her European neighbours and with the United States. (Oxford International Review)

an important contribution to the subject (Millenium)

Anne Deighton adds to the growing literature seeking to illuminate and enhance the role of Britain in the beginning of the cold war. (Political Studies)
