IR (with CourseMate, 1 term (6 months) Printed Access Card) (New, Engaging Titles from 4ltr Press) - Tapa blanda

"The authors cover all the key theories and concepts in the international relations subfield. [The Revenge of Geography] is an excellent way to show for example, why borders and people do not always coincide. There are flow charts that help students easily understand the workings of IGO's, etc. It is worth the adoption, at least once to try it out!" "I would describe IR as a solid and particularly current book that would hold the interest of many students in an introductory International Relations course. It is reasonably priced and has a good mix of traditional concepts and new ideas. For the most part, it is very up-to-date on issues. Combined with a reader, it would be an excellent choice." "Well-organized and reader-friendly with sufficient coverage for an introductory text book. It provides the necessary detail for understanding the subject without overwhelming the student." "This is a very straightforward introductory textbook that offers not only the theoretical foundations but also the plethora of current and emerging issues in our field."
