 Bible for International Organization Entrance August 24, 2007

This book is about International Organizations as we see from the title. It organize all kinds of actors - from international organizations to civil society or NGOs. I have never seen a book like this which is well-organized. For example, it have highlighted headings and sub-headings, easily understandable boxes (tables and figures) and finally, suggested further reading is also helpful part of this book and make it perfect!
Of course, it will not be easy for basic-level students of IO, however, it must have been helpful to them. No pains, no gains! Some students will think it should be like 'google' website - which must be easily searchable through just typing and clicking, but, if you read, this book suggest us with valuable commments in each introductory parts.
Studying only power politics will be concluded with biased knowledge. I highly recommend this book to read.
 too much minutia and disorganized August 23, 2007

It seems as though there are details on every single international organization there is - no matter how boring.
It seemed as though I had to search across many chapters for information that would have been better packaged together.
I really enjoy international politics but didn't really care for this text.
