Summary, etc "This volume, the collected work, is an assemblage of the author's "Reflections on World Affairs : Peace and Politics." The focus is on education, science for the have-nots--as well as for the haves--and science in diplomacy. Prof. Zewail believes that the use of the 'soft power' of education, diplomacy, and economic development is far more effective, and much less expensive, than the hegemony of military aggression or politicized foreign aid. From his unique position straddling between East and West cultures and values, it is clear that most problems in our world arise from 'not knowing' and 'not having.' It follows that education is critical, not only for enlightenment, or 'knowing,' but also for boosting productivity and enhancing 'having'"--Provided by publisher.
