<p><strong>'David Chandler’s Resilience takes a fashionably vague catchword and subjects it to a masterful critique and reconstruction. In his words, resilience is ‘a way of thinking about how we think about the being of being.’ As such it is nothing less than an epistemic revolution in the making, a shift in what, following Foucault, it is possible to think.' - </strong> <em>Nicholas Onuf, Professor Emeritus, Department of Politics and International Relations, Florida International University, USA.</em></p><p><strong>'Chandler (Univ. of Westminster, UK) provides the intellectual framework for his journal <em>Resilience</em>, which also sets out to revolutionize thinking on politics based on the concept of resilience. Chandler is among the most creative thinkers in contemporary international political thought, and this book is the culmination of his reconceptualization of international relations. Although its language and concepts are too advanced to be accessible to most undergraduate students, it is certainly a valuable source of inspiration for graduate students and researchers who seek a model for combining neo-Marxism and international relations. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students and research faculty.'</strong> <em>--R.M. Paddags, Ashland University, in CHOICE, February 2015</em></p><p><strong>'</strong><strong>This book is a real contribution to knowledge and debate concerning the rise of the discourse and concept of resilience, offering a new understanding, as it does, of resilience as a response to the age of complexity.'</strong> - <em>Julian Reid, University of Lapland</em></p><p><strong>'This volume examines how ‘resilience-thinking’ has influenced how </strong><strong>problems are perceived and addressed in a range of areas, including disaster response, peace and development, and global ethics.'</strong> - <em>Lanxin Xiang, (2014)</em></p>
