The powerful evidence-based analysis of current affairs led the author to question the basic myth of Western benevolence: from schoolroom experiments in democracy, exposure to radical ideas at home, and a mercy mission while at sea; to an unexpected encounter with former Foreign Secretary Robin Cook.
A provocative challenge to the standard ideology that Western power is a benevolent force in the world.
