Review:

By far the most comprehensive introduction to IR theories. This new edition has the virtue of applying them to an expanded range of contemporary global issues. * Mikulas Fabry, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA * This tremendous textbook is a must-read for any student of international relations. It takes stock of a wide range of theories; it also provides a fascinating analysis of modern world politics. * Bernhard Zangl, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat, Munich, Germany *
