When Shrimps Learn to Whistle

A collection of essays on some of the most pressing themes of today from nationalism and a world society, European unity, non-nuclear strategy, Gorbachev and Soviet foreign policy, and on post cold-war Britian. The essays demonstrate how the revolutions of the new world echo those of the old. Written as a companion volume to "The Time of my Life" the commentary is brought right up to date in the introduction and epilogue, providing the reader with a grandstand seat in the arena of European politics.
