Description
Book SynopsisThis volume, created on the initiative of some of Ullman's former students, is less a summing up of his work than a sort of intellectual kaleidoscope held up to his ideas. The result is a set of essays on themes relating to US defense and foreign policy.
Trade ReviewSubstantially rich and thoroughly researched. * American Political Science Review *
These spirited essays pay homage to a distinguished scholar of diplomacy, Richard Ullman. * Foreign Affairs *
