It captured my imagination more fully than anything I had seen before, and indeed, more fully than just about anything I have seen since! Robert Axelrod is one of my heroes, so, for me, this book was a blessing. I soaked up its stories and insights. Rarely do I get to the end of a book and wish it would keep going."" --Steven Levitt, University of Chicago, author of Freakonomics--Steven Levitt ""Professor Robert Axelrod's works are among the classic textbooks in the field of international politics in China.
