The Origins of the Cold War (Paperback)

'A fascinating exploration of how the cold war past continues to shape thinking about the contemporary world. As Caroline Kennedy-Pipe shows, cold war mentalities live on in the post-9/11 era - and to dangerous and devastating effect. An effective combination of History and International Relations, this book is illuminating and thought-provoking about the past and present shapes of world politics.' - Professor Geoffrey Roberts, University College Cork, Republic of Ireland 'A useful overview of the history of the Cold War, and a worthy contribution to Cold War studies.' - Europe-Asia Studies 'Certain to spark debate, this book should find its way on to college reading lists. It is brief, timely, well organised and goes beyond simply the recounting of a very complex period.' - Michael H. Creswell, Political Studies Review
