Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. Foreword by Carl Sagan. CITIZEN DIPLOMATS tells the dramatic stories of nine independent Americans who have made innovative person-to-person contacts with Soviet citizens and significantly contributed to bettering Soviet-American relations for the sake of world peace.

The authors also provide an overview of citizen diplomat strategies, a history of government policies toward person-to-person exchanges, and responses to common criticisms. An invaluable appendix--'What You Can Do'--will help interested readers become citizen diplomats themselves, and presents in an easy-to-use format the activities and addresses of hundreds of other individuals and organizations. Very fine, first edition, first printing, in fine, mylar-protected dust jacket.{Not remainder-marked or price-clipped} NFBS1.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. 24 cm. xiv,[2], 381, [3] pages. Illustrations. Appendix. Inscribed by the co-author (Shuman). Foreword by Carl Sagan. Gale Warner was a noted poet as well as a journalist whose career, and life, was cut short by cancer. Dancing at the Edge of Life was her memoir of her ultimately unsuccessful struggle for survival. Michael H. Shuman is an economist, attorney, author, and entrepreneur, and a globally recognized expert on community economics. He is one of the architects of the crowdfunding reforms that became the "JOBS Act," signed into law by President Obama in April 2012. Shuman is a Fellow at Cutting Edge Capital and Post-Carbon Institute. Shuman has authored or coauthored eight books. Shuman has written nearly one hundred published articles for such periodicals as New York Times, Washington Post,and Foreign Policy, In 1980 he won First Prize in the Rabinowitch Essay Competition of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists on "How to Prevent Nuclear War." In recent years, more and more Americans have begun taking responsibility, as private citizens, to promote healthier relations between the United States and the Soviet Union. They believe the dangers of nuclear war are simply too high for citizens to wait passively on the sidelines and merely hope for the best. They have been unsure of what they could accomplish, but absolutely certain that doing something is better than doing nothing. They have traveled to the Soviet Union and met with members of every stratum of Soviet society, from Politburo members to peasants. They believe that expanding the dialogue between the countries at every level is valuable and stabilizing. Some simply seek to learn as much as possible through direct observation and personal experience and then communicate to other Americans what they have learned. Others try to develop cultural exchanges, joint scientific projects, and trade agreements. Still others work to open new forums of political dialogue.
