Overview
This 1984 Abt Books volume is an assessment of U.S. conventional strategic options in an age of nuclear stalemate. Given thirty-five years of dealing professionally with politico-military and operational issues, mostly as a U.S. official, the author writes not as an academic theorist or armchair strategist but as an active participant in the national security process in Washington and in the field.
