- Craig N. Murphy, M. Margaret Ball Professor of International Relations, Wellesley College

"This tightly-written, accessible primer does a splendid job of giving students a solid overview of the central approaches to international organizations."

- Michael Barnett, Harold Stassen Chair of International Affairs, University of Minnesota
