'...the breadth and depth of the discussion is worth the read and is a welcome contribution to the study of European security.' - David J. Galbreath, Journal of Contemporary European Studies 'This volume ultimately succeeds in unpacking the prevalent political transformations in contemporary European security by expanding beyond studies of the ESDP-NATO dichotomy. It sets an example for future scholars by rising above the flurry over Kagan's provocative portrayal of the US and Europe as Mars and venus.' - Heidi Hardt, Journal of Common Market Studies '...the challenges of security policy in Europe are very well introduced by this book.' - Kolja Raube, European Foreign Affairs Review, 1, 2008
