A review by leonajasmin
World Order by Henry Kissinger

4.0

While Kissinger is quite a controversial figure in international affairs, he has an eloquent and readable writing style. As long as one has an interest in foreign affairs and in both the past and present of international relations, then this book is quite a good one to ease one's self into the topic or even just an interesting piece for those more well-versed. I found that Kissinger fares slightly better in summarising the past of the past than dwelling on the future in this book, but he wasn't particularly weak in the latter regard either. Overall, an insightful read from a well-known figure in IR.
