Features: Mr. Ye Chengba, the author, is a senior diplomat of China. In the early days of the founding of the country, after returning from the Korean War, he served as an official at the Chinese Consulate General in Geneva. Soon after, he worked in the United Nations practical departments for eight years and experienced the ups and downs of historical events. With the passage of time, some historical events may be buried in the dust. The author has compiled the highlights of his life at the United Nations into a book, revealing his observations, experiences, thoughts, and feelings. Exclusive disclosures of event backgrounds, previously secret documents now made public for the first time, rare insights into top-level decision-making, valuable and detailed historical accounts, simple and straightforward language, a narrative style that draws the reader in, and incisive arguments—all of which hold significant documentary value. This book reflects the world as seen by an elderly diplomat, making it a must-read for anyone seeking to understand and study the United Nations.
