"This work is an outstanding introduction to the theory of
international relations. The authors cover a wide range of
theoretical approaches and do so in a probing yet accessible
manner. With its exemplary balance and clarity, the book deserves a
wide readership among students young and old."--David Hendrickson,
Colorado College"Jackson and S�rensen's Introduction to
International Relations has already become a classic, and the
fourth edition of their text only confirms their accomplishment as
thought-provoking, exceptionally clear in expression, and complete
and balanced in their treatment of a contentious field."-- David
Clinton, Baylor University
"A unique and highly valuable textbook that offers students
succinct understandings of diverse international relations theories
and their relationship with one another. The fourth edition is even
more user friendly and covers all substantive new debates in IR
theory and foreign policy analyses."-- T.V. Paul, McGill
University"Jackson and S�rensen illuminate the subject with a rare
combination of theoretical mastery, empirical argument, and
normative insight like no other. The result is a book firmly
situated in the world, demonstrating the intrinsically human
character of international relations--its successes and its
possibilities."--William Bain, University of Wales,
Aberystwyth"Exemplary. . . pitched perfectly to promote student
understanding."--John M. Hobson, University of Sheffield
