Summary: THE present volume in the Survey of International Affairs covers the period from the end of 1954 to the nationalization of the Suez Canal Company on 26 July 1956. A subsequent volume will deal with the consequences of that act, carrying the story to the end of 1958. Although the period under review saw, among other things, the fall of President Peron of Argentina, the affairs of Latin America have not been included, since they did not, so far as we have been able to establish, contribute at this time in any direct way to the general development of international relations. What is here presented to the public is the joint work of the two authors whose names appear on the title-page. We have had the benefit of the co-operation of Dr. F. C. Jones, who has provided accounts of events in China, Japan and Korea, which have been of great use to us; and Mr. A. S. B. Olver has contributed the section. (pp. 14-21) on Indo-China in Part I. We are also grateful to Miss H. G. Oliver, who has prepared the index, and to Alan Bullock, Dr. Noble Frankland, and the Hon. C. M. Woodhouse, who have read the volume in manuscript and provided a number of useful and constructive comments.
