Synopsis
"System Effects presents a new way of looking at the international system as a network of inter-connections. The scholarship is sound, historically rich, and logically compelling."—Glenn H. Snyder, Professor Emeritus, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Steven M. Walt - The Atlantic Monthly
Drawing on a diverse body of scholarly research and a wealth of illuminating examples, Jervis shows that 'system effects' are an important and often overlooked part of social and political life.... His insights will capture the imagination of those who puzzle over other social problems as well.... Viewed as a whole, System Effects offers a sobering and valuable moral.
