Excellent Textbook

I used the 3rd edition of this one for a pol sci course a few years ago. Excellent textbook goes into the nitty gritty of postwar European domestic policies. Well organized and clearly written. For self study, use in conjunction with a good general history of postwar Western Europe by Philip Thody or William Hitchcock or Robert Paxton.
