Publisher Synopsis
"This is an insightful and analytic introduction to United States foreign policy. And yet, the book is very readable. Students will be challenged to engage with the complexities of the policymaking process. This book will be eye opening for them." -- Juris Pupcenoks "One of the best foreign policy books available." -- Joseph M. Gardner "The most comprehensive and thorough overview available of the stakeholders, institutions, and dynamics that shape the politics of U.S. foreign policy." -- Renato Corbetta "The best and most comprehensive overview on American foreign policy available" -- Dennis Jett "This is a deep and well-thought out framework for studying U.S. foreign policy. Its focus on institutions and decision-making sets it apart from other texts, and its ability to help students think systematically and empirically is a major plus" -- Matthew Zierler Read more...
