Very claryfing and instructive book, an excellent guide for students of Security and Defense issues, International Relations and Politics. Clarifing examples and historic perspectives that help understand theory.

This edition of Nye's Conflict and Cooperation is unparalleled in both theory and history. The author's concrete examples and tone contribute to a deep and profound understanding of the subject.

This book served as the foundational text for my national security studies course. It does a wonderful job in setting out all the relevant issues and explaining how different theoretical frameworks can help shed light on different aspects of states' behavior within the international system. Also included are many relevant historical examples. The numerous sidebar discussions and diagrams further help the student to get a better gap of the material. One of the best things about the book is that it is a true pleasure to read. Though this topic can be a bit dry, Dr. Nye is truly one of the most respected thinkers in the world in this area. His vast experience and practical wisdom are on display throughout the book.

An awesome read to understand international affairs. It provides a great break down of the foundations of international relations. I would recommend this book to many.

Excelllent book! It completes and satisfy the interest and questions of the student that is starting to know the core concepts of International Relations. I think the book should be more open and reflective of other marxist theories, not only the stalinist and leninist theories.Great Work!

this the book for everyone who wants to understand about one of the driving forces of international politics! I ended up underlining a lot just to be able to locate it anytime I wanted to. Very well written and organized. Highly recommended

The best book on International Relations I have read so far. Covers topics on Int relations which are wide ranging.

My daughter received the book in a timely manner. No damage, neat and crisp. :)Thank you.
