Jean Richardot – författare

An exciting and revealing inside story of the United Nations and the International Civil Service, told through the personal experience, reflections and fascinating assignments and adventures of one of its first staff members. A candid portrait of those who carry out UN actions programs at Headquarters on the East River and in the field, a new breed of men and women who place the world's well-being above the interests of their own countries. Told in impressionistic episodesóin most of which the author participatedóthis story has genuine historical value and carries forward to 1990 and the Persian Gulf War, explaining the role the UN can play in helping solve many of the most crucial global problems our planet now faces, leading toward a true "New World Order."
