American foreign policy often looks like a trail of man-made debris and disaster. Of course, the explanations for many poorly-made decisions are rather complex. In this brief and cogent analysis, Houghton shows us that understanding American foreign policy often comes down to the psychology of decision-making, the limited options available, and the structure of government. This is vital, required reading for all readers who wish to better understand America's involvement in the world.
