Few scholars of international affairs can boast of a more distinguished academic career than Joe Nye, and few foreign policy practitioners of having been more innovative and influential. Almost none has ever combined the two better. This outstanding collection puts on clear display the unique combination of analytical rigor, agile imagination and prudential wisdom that accounts for Nye's successes. Everyone can, and should, learn from these essays. <br>-John Gerard Ruggie, Harvard University and Former United Nations Assistant Secretary-General <br> As these essays demonstrate, Joseph S. Nye combines clear-sighted realism about power with an uncanny sense for emerging global trends--from interdependence to 'soft power.' His insights on turning theory into ethically purposeful practice make this book a 'must' for students of world politics. <br>-Robert O. Keohane, Duke University <br> This fine collection of essays covers an astonishing range of issues -- from the analysis of power to the progress and dangers of globalization, from the ethics of nuclear weapons to the growth of international relations. What gives them coherence and unity is a persistent attempt to go beyond the truths of classical realism, to fill its gaps, and to expose its limitations. <br>-Stanley Hoffmann, Paul and Catherine Buttenwieser University Professor, Harvard University <br>
