First Sentence
When we think of the way the global system functions, and of our place in that system, most of us think in terms of states, and of ourselves as citizens of one or other of those states. Read the first page

Format:Paperback
This was the first book I had ever read that was entirely on the EU. Out of the other EU books I have subsequently read I can say that this book is by far the best. It is an easy read, that goes into quite a lot of detail so is not too sketchy, but at the same time is not overly complicated. The book does what it says it will do, and has certainly given me an Understanding the European Union. If you want to read on a specific area this book prehaps is not the best, but on the other hand certainly has more detail than other general EU books. A very worthwhile read - thanks!

Excellent Introduction
13 Oct 2000
Format:Paperback
As an undergraduate political science major, this book was immensely helpful to me. I read it before studying the EU during my junior year abroad. It's clear, uses easy language, and provides the necessary basics for understanding the institution. I highly recommend it.

A must read for poli-sci majors
2 Nov 1999
Format:Paperback
This is a bit dry, if this is not your area of interests, but anyone who is curious about what's been going on in Europe should read this. The EU is a like nothing this world has ever seen before. This unique institution willl heavily influence global politics in the next century. It behoovs anyone interested in government to learn the basics of what the EU is all about.
