  1. Ayush –

    Good book to understand the UN’s shortcomings. Easy to read and digest. Author has first hand experience in the council.

  2. Shubham Goyal –

    Gives details on Security Council’s flaws and issues. Offers real world case examples. Hard to put down.

  3. Rakshit Monga –

    Detailed and insightful, but the writing style is not very engaging. I learned a lot, but it was a slog to get through.

  4. Prajwal Narendra Akhade –

    Important analysis of international politics. However, the book could be more accessible to non-experts. Still worth reading.

  5. Amanpreet Singh –

    Eye-opening account of UN failures. The case studies are compelling, but the author’s bias is noticeable. Overall a good read.

  6. Yogakshema Joshi –

    A critical examination of the Security Council’s role. Offers a unique perspective, but sometimes feels repetitive.

  7. Gaurav Kumar –

    Important, but a little slow. I agree with the author’s main points, even though he could be a little less biased.

  8. Nikita Rajak –

    A revealing look at the Security Council’s missteps. Puri’s insider perspective is valuable, but the book is a bit dry at times.

  9. Yash Kumar –

    Fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the UN. The book is well-researched, though occasionally a bit one-sided.

  10. Shubham Pandey –

    Puri’s insights are invaluable. This is essential reading for understanding the complexities of international intervention.

  11. Paras Patil –

    An informative but somewhat pessimistic view of the UN. Worth reading for its insights, despite the gloomy outlook.

  12. Sandat Sadanand Barve –

    A well-written and insightful critique of the UN Security Council. Offers a fresh perspective and raises important questions.

  13. Abhay Singh –

    An alright book to read, even if it is not spectacular. Author gives a decent overview of the pitfalls of UN.

  14. Vedang Singhal –

    Great exploration of the UN’s failings. Puri’s personal experience adds weight. Sometimes gets bogged down in detail.

  15. Yatharth Reddy Maddirala –

    Puri’s experience shines through. A must-read for anyone interested in the UN and global security, though dense.

  16. Anup Mangwani –

    Thought-provoking analysis of the Security Council’s failures. It could be more balanced. Still recommended.

  17. Divyansh Agarwal –

    The author clearly knows his subject matter. However, I thought that at some point the book became too convoluted.

  18. Akshay Kumar –

    Offers a critical perspective of Security council’s role. It offers a valuable unique point of view. Highly recommend this book!

  19. Lakshita Khurana –

    Detailed and insightful, this book offers an expert perspective. This book is a must for diplomats!
