Synopsis
From earliest times, mankind has sought to mitigate the horrors of war through measures for the limitation and control of armaments and war. In this study, the author, a leading authority on international political-military affairs, provides a remarkably lucid introduction to the entire subject of arms control and disarmament. The introductory chapters summarize the causes of war, distinguish among the various kinds of disarmament and arms control, and trace the historical record of disarmament negotiations through World War II. Policies of the major powers are then examined and a perceptive analysis is given of general disarmament, including progress made in the post World War II period in more limited forms of arms control. This book fills a longfelt need for a comprehensive factual-analytical overview of the problems and accomplishments of international arms control in the nuclear age. It is interdisciplinary in approach and draws its content from history, psychology, biology, anthropology, sociology, political science, economics, international law, diplomacy, and international relations.
