Mr. Cowell was a reporter for the New York Times when he covered the sensational murder of former KGB spy Alex Litvinenko in London.

Man, the State, and War
from Columbia University Press
Price: $26.10

Customer Review:

This is not directly a review, though I did find the information contained within Waltz's book to be very interesting. I took issue with his state-centric viewpoint however. For those of you more interested in the concept of 'individual analysis' that Waltz brushes aside, see the article "Let us now... more info

from Hyperion

Customer Review:

Read and be very upset, just like reading about the atrocities being committed against the helpless Palestinians. What is this world coming to? Read the book to be aware and speak out about the truth you read here.

Jihad vs. McWorld: How Globalism and Tribalism Are Reshaping the World
from Ballantine Books
Price: $10.20

Customer Review:

Barber's ethics clearly do not embrace contemporary commercialism, and it is also clear that he'd rather not see society enthralled in a continuous cycle of working endlessly in order to support a consumerist appetite for goods that contain no tangible value. His premise is that such an economic... more info

International Relations Theory: Realism, Pluralism, Globalism, and Beyond (3rd Edition)
from Prentice Hall
Price: $95.04

Customer Review:

Viotti and Kauppi take a slightly sympathetic view toward neo-conservative "realism" theory in another volume "International Relations Theory". This is a much better overview of the soft-science of IR and the history of IR across a variety of historical tracks. It will be a bookshelf keeper for me... more info

Contending Theories of International Relations: A Comprehensive Survey (5th Edition)
from Longman
Price: $96.30

Customer Review:

"Contending Theories of International Relations" is an excellent book. It reads more like an anthology than a textbook, but that can be viewed as one of the nice things about it. I very much like the organization of this book. I used it in my international relations courses. This is a... more info
