About this title

Synopsis:

The debate over national security and arms control has focused primarily on weapons-more or fewer weapons, different kinds of weapons. Hawks tend to see the immediate cause of war as one-sided weakness that tempts an aggressive adversary. For Doves, the primary cause of war lies in arms races that become provocative.

Synopsis:

This study explores in detail the probable paths to nuclear conflict, explains how changes in forces, technology, and political life will influence the likelihood of a nuclear war, and proposes specific recommendations to reduce the risk of nuclear war.
