Rezensionen

"Like precision-guided weapons, the authors of this insightful and persuasively argued book home in on what ails NATO. The recommended fixes are far-reaching in their capacity to ameliorate these problems and to help the Alliance successfully navigate the years ahead."
John Deni, US Army War College

"This valuable book offers many realistic and well-considered reforms aimed at making NATO fit for the twenty-first century. This makes it compulsory reading for anyone concerned about the fate of the transatlantic security relationship in our disorderly and increasingly confrontational world."
Jamie Shea, University of Exeter and former NATO Deputy Assistant Secretary General

"The only book to offer a systematic and up to date treatment of NATO with a problem-solving attitude. Theoretically informed and policy orientated, it's an excellent source for teaching NATO to novices."
Lorenzo Cladi, University of Plymouth "If you're looking for a concise text that deftly identifies the present challenges facing NATO and then goes just beyond pointing out the problems, but actually offers workable solutions to address these ills, then this is the text for you. What's Wrong with NATO and How to Fix It is a well-paced, yet comprehensive read that will be of interest to scholars and policy-makers alike."
Michael John Williams, Syracuse University
