Hitting on pressing global security challenges such as terrorism, the conflict in Ukraine, and the United Kingdom&#8217;s nuclear deterrent and Brexit, this tome addresses many issues of relevance to both scholars and policymakers. Taken together, the authors make a compelling case for the beginning of a new period of disorder and international transition.<br>\n<b>\u2014 <\/b><b>Brian Mazanec, Missouri State University<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This book deserves a wide readership for the light that it throws on many of the problems that our troubled world faces today. Each of the contributors helps to dispel misunderstandings and distortions.<br>\n<b>\u2014 <\/b><b>Paul Dukes, Emeritus Professor of History, University of Aberdeen<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Larry Black and his team of excellent scholars provide us with a high-level analysis of defining cases and issues in the growing world disorder. As usual Larry Black takes us out the conventional wisdom. Leaving aside recipes for a new order the essays of this book offer stimulating ideas and perspectives to circumvent the very possible worse case scenarios.<br>\n<b>\u2014 <\/b><b>Jacques L\u00e9vesque, University of Quebec, Montreal<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More details about the book are <a href=\"https:\/\/rowman.com\/ISBN\/9781498576376\/The-New-World-Disorder-Challenges-and-Threats-in-an-Uncertain-World#\">available online<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Distinguished Research Professor J.
