About the book

In the first book to distill the entire history of the United Nations into one accessible volume, Black explains how this complex organisation works and explores its successes, failings and current limitations. It includes the UN's creation and early history; how it is structured and whether it is well constituted in its functions. Black considers possibilities for reform to make it more democratic, effective and fit for purpose.
