Reviews
'An excellent analysis... clearly written and concise.' Dr Michael Dockrill, King's College, London, UK 'a comprehensive account...vigorously written [and] based on considerable research.' History 'An impressive synthesis of the printed documents.' English Historical Review 'The author displays extensive knowledge and sound judgment of the policies of nations whose histories are so rich and complex that many historians could spend a lifetime of study before uttering the kind of sensible pronouncements that Ball repeatedly makes...The Cold War: An International History, 1947-1991 makes a valuable contribution to the Cold War corpus, as a reference text, as a possible course textbook, and as a model for all bold enough to write about international history.' Canadian Journal of History 'By writing a useful, judicious overview of the cold war from a multipolar perspective, Ball has made a valuable contribution to the literature.' The International History Review
