Description

Originally published by Doubleday in 1969, this topical volume delineates the French position on thermonuclear weapons, as well as outlines the theories of deterrence and graduated retaliation that have guided U.S. nuclear policy formation. Also examines the future of the Atlantic Alliance. Political scientists, scientists and nuclear strategists will find this text an invaluable aid in understanding the issues that both unite and divide the Western allies on the issue of nuclear arms.
