...national leaders should consider in regulating wartime conduct. Kennedy is a peacenik—a conscientious objector during the Vietnam War, in fact (see the interview with him on page B2). But this thin volume reflects two decades of his rethinking on war’s permissibility and the proper role of law—a rethinking that he says was prompted by questions from students who urged military intervention in war-torn Bosnia and Darfur. The result is spectacular. Kennedy’s book is extremely nuanced, as it should be, given his subject. And the prose is immensely...

...Symphony, the lessons have been as much cultural as musical. Before taking off to Japan, orchestra members were briefed by a former Australian consul-general in Osaka, John Montgomery, and a booklet was prepared, subtitled "Food and the Getting of It" and setting out such cultural niceties as the proper pronunciation of Kyoto (kyo-to not ki-yo-too) and how to order up big in a noodle bar: ramen oh-mori! The most important phrase? "Probably onegaishimasu," says tour manager John Glenn. "Please can you help me. And just being able to say thank you, arrigato. Or arrigato gozaimasu...
