A world map at the beginning identifies trouble spots as major, lower-level, and minor or latent, thus introducing this account of conflicts and insurgencies in various countries, arranged by region. Each chapter profiles a country and its conflicts, discussing the historical origins of tensions, the parties involved, major events, and future prospects, and providing statistical data and a reading list. The author has been a foreign correspondent for over 20 years on assignment for The Times London, the New York Daily News , and The Observer . The first two editions of this useful reference were published in Great Britain by Bloomsbury Publishing in 1989 and 1992; the first edition was also published in the US by Vintage Books under the title The Fighting never Stopped (no second edition was published in North America).
