This is a hardcover book published without a dust jacket by Mercer University Press as part of the Carl Vinson Memorial Lecture Series. It includes an Introduction by R. Kirby Godsey, a Tribute to John A. Sibley by Robert L. Steed, a Tribute to Carl Vinson by Karl P. Warden and Scenes from the Inaugural Lecture (black and white photographs). President Carter's words are as relevant today as when first spoken. This first address of the Carl Vinson Memorial Lecture Series at Mercer University is a masterful assessment of the difficulties of resolving disputes. President Carter's guidelines for establishing a more stable peace in the world are concise and imaginative without sacrificing their essential practicality. "We need . . .bright thinking, unanticipated approaches, and unorthodox ideas to achieve the ancient goals of better justice and peace in the world."
