The Cold War and the Making of the Modern World by Martin Walker

This is a history of the Cold War written by one of the former Moscow correspondents of "The Guardian". The book looks at how the war may have exerted a huge economic and psychological burden on the world but that it also provided the world with a sort of stability.

Martin Walker served as bureau chief for Britain's The Guardian in Washington, D.C., and other postings before retiring as the paper's assistant editor. A regular commentator on CNN, Inside Washington, and NPR, he is also a contributing editor of the Los Angeles Times. He has written for the New York Times, the Washington Post, USA Today, and The New Republic, and was awarded Britain's Reporter of the Year prize. He is a senior fellow of the World Policy Institute in New York and has lectured at many American universities. Walker is the author of six books, including The President We Deserve and The Cold War: A History. He is married, has two daughters, and lives in Europe.
