Media Reviews

'Especially helpful for students attempting to gain a sense of the scope and diversity of thinking in contemporary International Relations, this text is a compendium of some of the field's most influential theorists along with clear, accessible, and thoughtfully contextualized summaries of their most important insights. Despite their brevity and concision, individual chapters include not just synopses and assessments of these thinkers' contributions, but also bibliographic references to their most important works, and to those of their interpreters and critics. This book is a fine launching point for thoughtful engagement with the broad field of IR.' - Mark Rupert, Syracuse University, USA
