highly recommended

The first text in the field to be written following the end of the Cold War, Goldstein's International Relations evenly balances security and economic issues. It also distinguishes itself from the competition through its strong coverage of alternative theoretical perspectives, the environment, and women. The book integrates technology seamlessly with marginal icons linking to additional online content such as video clips, interactive simulations, and practice tests. The Updated Seventh Edition offers a brand new feature ? ?Careers in IR??that will help students apply their study of international relations to their own career plans, as well as key updates on ever-changing topics such as the war in Iraq, Iran?s nuclear weapons program, Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza strip, Palestinian and Israeli elections, Islamic radicalism in Europe, possible bird flu pandemics and rising AIDS infections, China on the rise, the election of the first woman president in Africa, and more. Lauded for its commitment to currency, lively writing style, colorful photo program, and abundance of examples, International Relations has long been a favorite of both students and instructors because it makes the rich complexity of international politics accessible and exciting.

Very Intense and informative

The textbook "International Relations" provides an extremely indepth overview of world politics. It's interesting, but definitely not light reading. (At the moment, I'm still trying to get through chapter three.) I highly recommend it for anyone who is thinking of pursuing International Relations at the post secondary level, but would like to learn more about the actual topic first.

Good Overview but dont waste your money

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.

Intimate International Relations

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.

IR for Beginners

This book is very straightforward and ideal for an introductory Political Science course at the college level. Definitions are in bold letters and Goldstein allows readers to follow along with ease.
