Filling a gap in the U. S. foreign policy textbook market, this innovative introduction shows students how real American foreign policy makers make real decisions. Drawing on and summarizing a vast amount of literature, author David Patrick Houghton introduces students to three basic theoriesof decision-making. He then applies each of these perspectives to six well-known historical cases that range from classic to contemporary: the Bay of Pigs, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Vietnam War, the Iran Hostage Crisis, the Kosovo War, and the Iraq War. Houghton uses the crucial "decisionpoints" of these events to give students a sense of what it is actually like to make high-level decisions. He also shows how the theories discussed in the book can be applied to these case studies. Featuring a direct, accessible writing style, coverage of recent advances in the field-including new psychological models like prospect theory and poliheuristic theory-and an affordable price, The Decision Point: Six Cases in U. S. Foreign Policy Decision Making serves as a perfect text orsupplement for courses in U. S. Foreign Policy and Foreign Policy Decision-Making. | The Decision Point by David Patrick Houghton, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
