"Kadera's book presents a complicated mathematical argument in clear terms any interested reader will understand. Much of the model is presented graphically, with pains taken to make each picture truly worth a thousand words. The Power-Conflict Story offers the most accessible presentation of formal work I have seen since Bueno de Mesquita and Lalman's War and Reason. . . . [H]er book should be read not only by those interested in the relationship between power and conflict, but also by those interested in the development of formal models and those engaged by research design questions."
