"A pleasure to report that the Michaud-Nossal collection is not only timely but comprehensible, with generally well written essays assigned to important topics. Readers will come away vastly better informed about the twists and turns - and continuities - of Canadian foreign policy in the 1980s - what it was, how it was made, and where it fits." - Robert Bothwell, International Journal
