Book Review

Cold War at 30,000 Feet: The Anglo-American Fight for Aviation Supremacy. By Jeffrey A. Engel. (Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 2007. xiv, 351 pp. $35.00, ISBN 978-0-674-02461-8.)

Jeffrey A. Engel's book is a fascinating read, especially for those who maintain that international relations are defined by "high politics" (as in global alliances and security issues) that take precedent over "low politics" (such as financial and trade issues). In examining Anglo-American differences over the trade in aeronautics (engines and aircraft), Engel shows just how much low politics mattered—and how they could be defining elements of high politics when international relations collided with economic and trade interests.
