What I expected. The book was in overall good condition. There was an underline here or there but it was well worth it for the price. There is a newer version out, but this one was much more affordable for the price and the missing articles can be found online. It was a good introduction to IR and gave examples of real-world scholar articles. There are a few articles written by the authors but also many that include other authors/ well-known scholars in the field. It covered international economy and environment pretty well but left out a lot on terrorism that is relevant nowadays. Those articles can be found online, though. The book was in relatively good condition and came on time, carefully packaged.
Profs. Art & Jervis have done an incredible job of aggregating some of the best articles on international relations. There are theory-related articles (on realism, neoliberal constructivism, etc.), articles on causes of war, pieces of human rights and humanitarian intervention, and even selections on relatively new topics in the field like terrorism and US-China relations. I have really enjoyed reading this book, and I feel it to be a wonderful starting point for the study of international relations. Some articles are abridged, and they are well organized to provide a cohesive and efficient reading experience.
Very integrating work for college students and anyone who is wanting to understand the world of politics and how different groups of society get along with each other in order to preserve a sense of peace on this planet.
I am using this book in a college course, so if you are purchasing it for that reason - my review won't matter because the book is required regardless. It just isn't interesting. International Politics CAN be interesting, but this book doesn't showcase that for sure.I got a used copy, I generally love used books, but I had a TON of highlighting and underlining in mine. Kind of distracting, but I guess I should've expected it buying used. I wouldn't have purchased it though had it been marked as "poor condition."
This book is really helpful for my International Relations Course, but it's a really hard read for me. I would definitely suggest this book to anyone with an interest in international politics though.
Because this was a required school purchase, I wouldn't want to give it low stars based on whether or not it was enjoyable to a teenager who was "forced" to read it. It served it's purpose.
Highly recommend this book for graduate level work on international politics. The authors present a wide array of topics that are well researched.
