Book Synopsis


Trade Review
Braumoeller's analysis of the data is thoughtful and convincing...Today, with the conditions for a regional war in the Middle East riper than they have been for years, the liberal international order under strain, and the deterioration of U.S.-Chinese relations, Only the Dead makes for sobering reading. * Nikita Lalwani, Yale Law School and Sam Winter-Levy, Princeton University, Foreign Policy *
Overall, the arguments in this book are strong, and the discussion of data issues is subtle throughout. Its arguments seem fundamentally correct to me. * Tyler Cowen, Marginal Revolution University *
