Revolution on east river
- New York Abelard-Schuman 1956
- 244 p.
In attempting to describe, within the scope of a few chap ters, some of the most significant phases of the present revolution for survival, a book of this kind has to conform to severe limitations of both space and method. To make any sense at all of the medley of events and motivations which make up international relations today, is essential to take a definite standpoint.
That standpoint, for our own purposes, has been set out in the Introduction. Whether the author's personal view, thus boldly stated at the beginning of this book, is justified by the material facts must be left to the reader's judgment. But it should be at once explained that the main problems selected for review in the following chapters are not, in themselves, dependent on any individual point of view. They are, on the contrary, current topics which confront the aver age newspaper reader every day of his life.
