Titled ‘The Sri Lanka Peace Process: An Inside View’, the book is published by Vijitha Yapa Publications. It analyses the design of the peace process, its strengths and inherent flaws, the limited gains that were achieved, and the factors that precipitated its failure. Prof. Peiris brings exceptional authority to this narrative. His academic credentials include a Bachelor of Laws with First Class Honours from the University of Ceylon and doctorates from Oxford University and Sri Lanka. Drawing on this blend of academic rigour and experience at the highest levels of governance, Prof. Peiris offers an objective, analytical and deeply personal account of the peace talks.
