Reviews for America´s Half-Century: United States Foreign Policy in the Cold War and After
Praise for the first edition: "Incisive, eminently readable ...McCormick reminds his readers of the unfashionable truths of our time: American domination of the postwar order, the weakness and conservatism of the Soviet Union, the gratuitousness of the nuclear arms race."
'Nation.' "Original, bold, provocative, important."
