Reviews for Causes of War

""In summary, this book can be considered as a useful source specifically for international relations students and researchers, and it may also be of interest for scholars, policy makers and strategists."" (Political Studies Review, 1 September 2011) ""Along the way are examples from recent history that may surprise the reader. At the very least, every member of Congress and the State Department should study this report."" (Book News Inc, November 2010)
