International Relations, Brief Edition


This book was excellent and it was very easy to order. It was a brand new item and after a whole semester of use still in almost brand new condition.
Rating: 5 / 5
Don’t buy the new edition. It contains nothing new except just added more current events. If you want to save up, purchase the 2006-2007 edition because the content is just about the same in regards to the concept of trade, foreign policy systems and how the world court works too.

It’s a great textbook but as a student, when a new textbook rolls out every year with minor changes and different examples it doesn’t seem quite worth it. If you’re already well versed in international relations (either way of Model UN, or high school courses) don’t bother buying a new copy. Most professors only use it as a guide. The real fun is in class and in discussion.
Rating: 4 / 5
Very useful and clear. Good general overview for the history and theories of international relations.
Rating: 5 / 5
The book International Relations works to present readers with a broad base of knowledge in a world that is infinitely complex and becoming more global with the passing of each day. If you desire to learn about the current governing bodies in the world today, this book will provide the basis for a life-long study.
