Book excerpt: Lankevich (emeritus, history, City U. of New York) examines the tenure of Perez de Cuellar, arguing that, although lacking much in personal charisma and facing the assumption that he was only a temporary or at best a one-term secretary-general, he was able to turn an almost financially bankrupt UN around in his second term and lead several successful UN actions in the Persian Gulf and Africa. c.
