Reviews

In this volume, seasoned practitioners and scholars take a hard look at how NATO continues to evolve to meet changing security challenges to the transatlantic community. It's a go-to resource for anyone interested in the Alliance's history—and its future.
*Daniel Hamilton, Johns Hopkins University*

This very thoughtful and insightful volume brings together an outstanding team of international experts to examine a variety of NATO activities and issues since the fall of the Soviet empire. In so doing, it helps prepare the reader to understand present NATO realities and to make informed judgments about its future. NATO: From Regional to Global Security Provider deserves a broad readership among public intellectuals, policymakers, students, and ordinary citizens who wish to remain current upon the major issues of the day.
*Robert Turner, University of Virgina School of Law*

This volume provides a rich survey of perspectives on NATO’s activities over the past several years.  The expert analysis is both insightful and prescriptive.
