School was unredeemably boring and my solution was to misbehave in class and get sent to the principal’s office. He did not want me hanging around, so dispatched me to the library. Mrs. Austin knew exactly what was going on and showed me the latest books that had arrived or suggested older works for me to read. In lieu of going stir crazy in class, I began to acquire an education.

As he once told me,“I’vebeenpayingintoTIAA-CREF[thenation-widefacultypensionfund]for almost50years!”Yetthisprefaceshouldnotberegardedasaeulogy.Indeed,Ned haspublishedsixauthoredorco-authoredbooksinthelast4years—yearswhenhe serenely sailed past his 70th birthday. It is a number that many people would consider ‘a career’ in itself. Ned has taught at some of America’s more renowned universities: The City College and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, Cornell, Dartmouth, Ohio State and Pittsburgh. He now works in the War Studies Department of King’s College London, arguably the best department in its field, andisafellowatPembrokeCollege,UniversityofCambridge—whereheroutinely enjoys the benefit of high table. Thenagain,itishardtodefineNed’s‘field,’giventhathehastaughtcourseson political science, international relations, political psychology, political theory, and Greek literature and philosophy. Indeed, after his 70th birthday, he moved to King’s and developed new courses on the philosophy of science, scope and methods,andGreek conceptionsof order andjustice. His19 scholarly authoredor co-authored books, 12 edited books, and his more than two hundred author or co-author articles reflect that diversity of interests. I will return to Ned’s astonishing list of accomplishments, and his broad and deep intellectual contribution. But to only discuss that in this preface would be one-dimensional. I am fortunate enough to have known Ned as a student, a col- league and subsequently as a co-author and friend.
