A Very Good + unmarked copy with light foxing to top edge with VG + complete dustjacket. A collection of the statesman's essays on some of the pressing themes of the time, which show how the revolutions of the new world echo those of the old. His wide ranging intelligence and experience of world affairs uniquely qualify him to comment on the changes taking place in Eastern Europe and here reproduces those articles - from the New Russian Empire in 1951, Britain and Europe in 1987 and Gorbachev in 1990 - which contain his seminal views on the great events of the day and in which Healey himself often played a decisive hand. With fresh commentaries and notes which provide an insight into the present. NOT EX LIB A1E. Very Good/Very Good.
