Blurb

Alexander L. George was one of the most productive and respected political scientists

of the late twentieth century. He and his wife, Juliette George, wrote one of the first

psychobiographies, and Professor George went on to write seminal articles and books

focusing on political psychology, the operational code, foreign policy decisionmaking,

case study methodology, deterrence, coercive diplomacy, policy legitimacy, and bridging

the gap between the academic and policymaking communities. This book is the first

and only one to contain examples of the works across these fields written by Alexander

George and several of his collaborators.

• This is a collection of Alexander L. George's works from the major fields to which

he contributed.

• There are biographical essays by his wife and co-author (Juliette L. George), daughter

(Janice Gross Stein).

• There are 25 photographs of Alexander L. George and his family which have not
