In this paper we study the defocusing, cubic nonlinear wave equation in three dimensions with radial initial data. The critical space is H1/2 × H-1/2. We show that if the initial data is radial and lies in (Hs × Hs - 1) ∩ (H1/2 × H-1/2) for some s > (1)/(2), then the cubic initial value problem is globally well - posed. We use the I - method and the long time Strichartz estimates. This method is quite similar to the method used in [D2].
