International Studies Intensives
About the Book Series
International Studies Intensives (ISI) is a book series that springs from the desire to keep students engaged in the world around them. ISI books are meant to offer an intensive introduction to subjects often left out of the curriculum.
Our authors are from a range of disciplines and employ many different methodological approaches to teaching about international issues. ISI books are highly legible and emphasize cutting-edge topics central to contemporary policy and scholarly debates along with a wealth of core concepts and empirical data. They are organized and formatted to be compelling to both instructors and students.
Examination/inspection copies for course adoption may be requested from the Webpage of any book in the series.
Book proposal guidelines for the series can be found here.
Book proposals for the series should be directed to the co-editors: [email protected] and [email protected].
