Description

David A. Hamburg--doctor, teacher, hostage negotiator, presidential advisor, and more--has seen a lot in his 76 years and has a message for the 21st century: An ounce of prevention is worth many pounds of cure when it comes to deadly international conflict. To explore how the model of preventive medicine may be practically applied to situations as widely ranging as World War II's Holocaust and the recent terrorist attacks in the U. S., Hamburg joined with Cyrus R. Vance in 1994 to create the Carnegie Commission on Preventing Deadly Conflict. This book is the capstone of the Commission's extensive efforts.
