Reviews
‘Canada’s National Security in the Post-9/11 World advances our understanding of the current environment within which Canada’s “grand strategy” gets developed (or not, as the case may be). It is sure to contribute to the national debate on the major orientation of Canadian foreign and security policy.’
Rob Huebert, Centre for Military and Strategic Studies and Department of Political Science, University of Calgary:
‘This is by far the best collection that has been published on the issues surrounding Canada’s national security. It is an outstanding volume of very important works that will define the field, and it will no doubt cause considerable discussion in Canadian security and defence circles.’
