Editorial Reviews

Copeland's (senior fellow, Munk Centre for International Studies, Univ. of Toronto) vantage point as a former diplomat leads him to conclude that diplomacy in the age of globalization requires new skills and tools. Since the end of the Cold War, new issues dominate the stage: the growing importance of business across borders, economic development as an important factor in national security, and the rise of science-based issues like climate change and pandemic disease. Above all, these issues require that diplomats not only talk to other diplomats but reach out to the public at large in both their home country and their country of assignment; diplomats now need much greater "street smarts" and communication skills. The last third of the book details the author's ideas for needed change and recommendations for achieving them. His discussion is based on careful thought and a wide range of sources. VERDICT Best for readers in the foreign policy field, as general readers will not be familiar with the issues raised. Those in the field may well find it uncomfortable to have their assumptions and methods challenged, but young and aspiring diplomats should find this essential reading.—Marcia L. Sprules, Council on Foreign Relations Lib., NY
