I needed this book for a grad school course on international law and relations. While I bought this book out of necessity, I thoroughly enjoyed it and even went back to read sections that were not addressed during the semester. I have always had an interest in foreign policy and international relations, but I had never had the opportunity to courses devoted to those subjects until grad school. This book was for what was really an introductory class for me to this particular area of study and it left me well-prepared for future courses that covered much more information and far more detail. I do believe that I owe this book a bit of credit for the success I achieved in my following courses.
