The World's Most Prestigious Prize: The Inside Story of the Nobel
Peace Prize is a fascinating, insider account of the Nobel peace
prize. Drawing on unprecedented access to the Norwegian Nobel
Institute's vast archive, it offers a gripping account of the
founding of the prize, as well as its highs and lows, triumphs and
disasters, over the last one-hundred-and-twenty years. But more
than that, the book also draws on the author's unique insight
during his twenty-five years as Director of the Norwegian Nobel
Institute and Secretary of the Norwegian Nobel Committee. It
reveals the real story of all the laureates of that period - some
of them among the most controversial in the history of the prize
(Gorbachev, Arafat, Peres and Rabin, Mandela and De Klerk, Obama,
and Liu Xiaobo) - and exactly why they came to receive the prize.
Despite all that has been written about the Nobel Peace Prize, this
is the first-ever account written by a prominent insider in the
Nobel system.
