Book ReviewsFischer, Thomas C. The Europeanization of America: What the Americans
Need to Know about the European Union. Durham, NC: Carolina Academic Press,
1995. Pp. xiv, 335. Index. $49.95. If every American knew as much about America as Professor Fischer
expects them to know about the European Union... if every European knew as much
about Europe as Professor Fischer expects Americans to know the old
Continent.... This book has a strange quality: It is not rooted in any academic
discipline - it is part history, part political science, part law, part
political economy. But it works wonderfully: It provides a useful panorama for
any outsider who wants not only to know about the mechanics of the Union but to
feet its geist. Even if you count yourself as an expert, you will learn
something new from almost every chapter. On the costly side if compared to,
say, the Pinder volume reviewed above. JHHW
