From Library Journal:
Fulbright, an Arkansas Democrat, retired from the U.S. Senate in 1974, but his interest in political affairs, especially foreign policy, has remained vital. This collection of seven reflective essays offers a rather discouraging assessment of the U.S. position in the world arena. Fulbright critiques the interventionist tendencies in U.S. foreign policy and Congress's inability to limit presidential adventurism. His analysis of Soviet-American relations is particularly bold and prescriptive. Fulbright recaps American policy decisions in Vietnam and the Middle East and regrets that his criticisms then were not more effective. Although this highly personal and analytical book may lack the urgency of his influential The Arrogance of Power (Random, 1967), his perspectives deserve serious consideration, especially since a new administration has come into power.
