About the Author
ROBERT J. LIEBER is Professor of Government and Foreign Service at Georgetown University, where he served as Chair of the Government Department from 1990 to 1996 and as Interim Chair of Psychology from 1997 to 1999. He is an expert on American foreign policy and U.S. relations with Europe and the Middle East. He was born and raised in Chicago; he received his undergraduate education at the University of Wisconsin and his Ph.D. at Harvard. He has held fellowships from the Guggenheim, Rockefeller and Ford Foundations, the Council on Foreign Relations, and the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. In addition he has taught at Harvard, Oxford, and the University of California, Davis, and has been Visiting Fellow at St. Antony's College, Oxford, the Harvard Center for International Affairs, the Atlantic Institute in Paris, and Fudan University in Shanghai.
Professor Lieber is author of five other books: British Politics and European Unity (1970); Theory and World Politics (1972); Oil and the Middle East War (1976); Contemporary Politics; Europe (co-author, 1976); and The Oil Decade (1983 and 1986). In addition, with Kenneth Oye and Donald Rothchild he is co-editor and contributing author of four volumes on American foreign policy: Eagle Entangled: U.S. Foreign Policy in a Complex World (1979); Eagle Defiant: United States Foreign Policy in the 1980s (1983); Eagle Resurgent? The Reagan Era in American Foreign Policy (1987); and Eagle in a New World: American Grand Strategy in the Post-Cold War Era (1992).

Dr. Lieber has been a foreign policy advisor in several presidential campaigns, a frequent contributor to scholarly journals and newspapers, and a participant in discussions of foreign affairs on television and radio.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to ThriftBooks-Atlanta, Dallas, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
