This book describes in detail all the institutions, functions and activities undertaken by the UN and its specialised agencies. Its excellent cross-referencing enables the reader either to concentrate on a specific topic or to gather information about the whole spectrum of a given activity, function, institution or situation.
The "Brief Guide to United Nations Documents" facilitates access to UN documents, while a comprehensive Index provides quick reference.
The authors are drawn from many areas of expertise: scholars, diplomats, national and international civil servants. All, however, are experts on the UN system.
