Now in its seventh edition  the reader includes ten new selections to take account of key current international issues. Meticulously chosen and edited by leading scholars Robert J. Art and Kenneth N. Waltz  the selections are grouped under three headings: theories  key case studies  and contemporary issues. The first section includes essays that cover the security dilemma  terrorism  the sources of military doctrine  the nuclear revolution  and the fungibility of force. The second section includes case studies in the use of force that span the period from World War I through the war in Iraq. The final section considers issues concerning the projection of U.S. military power  the spread of biological and nuclear weapons  intervention in internal conflicts  and coping with terrorism and insurgencies. Continuing the tradition of previous editions  this fully updated reader collects the best analysis by influential thinkers on the use of force in international affairs.  Contributions by: Bruce J.
