Got my first request for BFA advance copy from UK Parliament!
Pretty cool. Senior advisor to an MP who works international affairs in the House of Commons. He wrote, "I found the Pentagon's New Map particularly useful in trying to understand the challenges we face in engaging with and developing those countries in the gap and I am sure BFA will be a very useful addition."
Briefing at the House of Commons in the fall of 2003 was one of the highlights of my career.
Can't wait to be asked back . . . hint, hint.
