Peter Dunkley retired from Georgetown University, USA, in 2015, after having served 40 years as a jointly appointed professor in the Core Faculty of the School of Foreign Service and the Department of History in the College of Arts and Sciences.

“This is an excellent feat of historical synthesis, providing an engaging account of the crisis of the twentieth century. This includes not just its immediate causes and consequences but the longer-term context going back to the Congress of Vienna in 1815 just as it provides food for thought as we make sense of the world today.”
Dr. Alan James, King’s College London
