Well, that's how we call it in our department as we always go back into this textbook whenever we need some guidance in our studies. It is the most useful textbook next to the Penguin Dictionary of IR. Recommended buy for all International Relations students out there.

This is the fifth edition of this most comprehensive textbook. Its 600 pages are rich in content and very accessible to students. As the world is becoming a global village, people travel, media bring the world to our screens live, and modern transportation enables us to travel long distances in a relatively short time, we increasingly become citizens of the world. Following a short introduction about globalization and global politics, Part One of this book provides historical context. Part Two acquaint us with theories of world politics. Part Three and Four concern modern economy, environment, nationalism, culture, human rights and global security, while Part Five is about globalization in the future.
Each chapter begins with a reader's guide. Definitions and key points are put in distinct boxes; case studies are provided to make the reading clear and down-to-earth; diagrams and photos enrich the eyes, and each chapter concludes with suggestions for further reading. This is the best textbook on globalization I know at present. It is a valuable asset for anyone who is interested in current global concerns.
