World Politics: Trends and Transformations, 2011-2012 Update Edition
"The text is accessible to both teachers and students (including those outside political science, broadly conceived). Students have always told me the book has enhanced their understanding of global issues. The language is clear, it touches on most of the important issues in international relations, and the organization of the text makes teaching fun."-- Bossman Asare, Graceland University"The author does an excellent job of defining concepts and terms that are important to the study of international relations and world politics. The chapters of the textbook are organized in a logical way that is consistent with the conventional structure of IR courses in the U.S."-- John Tuman, University of Nevada, Las Vegas"...It provides extensive discussion of the main concepts and theories of international relations without being too easy or simplistic. It offers critical analysis of world events and illuminates on pressing new issues in world politics."-- Dr. Cristian A. Harris, North Georgia College and State University
