Testo aggiuntivo
Mandelbaum has written probably the best and the most comprehensive study ever published on American foreign policy. [...] a truly superb synthesis of both theory and history… With this magisterial volume, Mandelbaum's greatest contribution is the placement of many dramatic and significant historical and contemporary events within a theoretical and historical context. [...] The systematic analysis of such a long period in the history of American foreign policy yields new and compelling perspectives on events, peoples, and processes.
