This is not so much a ′handbook′, more a brilliantly conceived and wonderfully designed piece of scholarship that makes a major contribution of its own to the field of IR. Each of the thirty three individual essays does exactly what the editors must have hoped for - provide a thoroughgoing guide to nearly every conceivable topic of interest to the student of international politics. A must buy for libraries and a first-to-go-to reference point for scholars. An outstanding achievement Professor Michael CoxLondon School of Economics The vastly changed, second edition of "The Handbook" extends its run as the most authoritative and convenient source for a comprehensive and sophisticated overview of a vibrant field of scholarship. The 33 chapters are highly informative and up-to-date, and authored by a distinguished and diverse group of international scholars. For an overview and as a reference this is a not-to-be-missed volume that all students of international relations will want to add to their personal library Peter KatzensteinProfessor of International Studies, Cornell University When incredible uncertainty and sheer unpredictability of international relations as witnessed at the dawn of the twentieth-first century often lead actors to get scared and analysts to procrastinate, this thoroughly edited volume gives a reliable guidance to thinking and action to both analysts and actors with its balance of many angles and its thoroughness of normative, theoretical and empirical investigations Takashi InoguchiProfessor Emeritus, University of Tokyo, President, University of Niigata Prefecture It would be hard to find a better one-volume overview of the fieldAnne-Marie SlaughterProfessor of Politics and International Affairs, Princeton University
