Review

`This highly readable book provides an authoritative analysis of American foreign policy as well as new perspectives on the disparity between words and action in the Reagan administration. Elegantly argued and rich in new insights, the book is certain to be welcomed as a major contribution both to the study of international relations and American politics.' -- Steve Smith, University of Aberystwyth, UK `Another thought-provoking analysis by one of the most astute observers of the international scene.' -- Henry A. Kissinger `For many years, Coral Bell has been among the shrewdest, best informed, most independent minded analysts of American foreign policy. She has a remarkably sure grasp on the ideas and personalities that have shaped American views and actions. Her new study The Reagan Paradox is a brilliant combination of narrative, historical analysis and broad theory. She compresses a life-time of reflection in a short and elegantly readable book.' -- David P. Calleo, The Johns Hopkins University, US `Coral Bell's book on American Foreign Policy in the 1980's ought to be of interest to students of international affairs as well as to personnel of our Armed Forces.' -- Col. R. Rama Rao, USI Journal
