GPE and its importance to the world

This book is great and very reader-friendly. It explains key concepts as it relates to the GPE. I have been able to focus on the true meaning of it and it has somewhat peaked my interest to doing additional research on the GPE. I am from the Caribbean and as such, we see things on a smaller scale but one must say that in light of the book, it has placed things in a greater perspective and it has helped me to see exactly how the Caribbean fits into the global political economy.

Ideal introduction to the topic
