Foreword by Richard C. Holbrooke. viii + 284pp, appendix, bibliography, index, paperback. "Anderson is a retired foreign service officer whose extensive involvement in Asian affairs makes him eminently qualified to address key issues confronting US foreign policy towards this region. He was appointed to be American chargé d?affaires when the Clinton administration normalized relations with Vietnam in 1995 and opened the US embassy in the Vietnamese capital of Hanoi. The book is a comprehensive yet readable account of US-Vietnamese relations since the long delayed rapprochement and provides an insider?s view of Vietnam?s struggle to reform its political and economic structure to achieve relevance in the age of globalization. The most rewarding feature informs the reader that there is much more to US-Vietnam relations than the POW/MIA issue, which has occupied mainstream media attention. The birth pangs of a newly unified nation and the challenge of refashioning a socialist national economy under the homogenizing pressures of the capitalist world order are discussed with great insight and sympathy."
