"This volume presents the United Nations through the iconic images of Ezra Stoller, whose photographs have helped make the complex instantly recognizable the world over. Stoller's photographs capture the project over a period of forty years, beginning with the construction of the Secretariat in 1949, and include both majestic exterior views taken from now inaccessible vantage points and images of private spaces normally off-limits to the general public."--BOOK JACKET
