About the Author:

Lt. General William E. Odom is Director of National Security Studies at the Hudson Institute and former Director of the National Security Agency.

Review:

Pacifists and near pacifists will read General Odom's book with a sinking heart. Nonetheless they and the realists will be astonished at the number of reasons nations go to war. (Robert A. Fangmeier, ENCOUNTER )

...one of the better discussions of the optimum American military strategy for the post-Cold War world....well informed. (Robert A. Fangmeier, ENCOUNTER Booklist )

This book is an attempt to explain to the governments of the West why the post-cold-war world is not a peaceful place, and what they will have to do if they are to avoid paying the costs of unreadiness. (Robert A. Fangmeier, ENCOUNTER The Economist )

...something here for everyone... (Robert A. Fangmeier, ENCOUNTER U.S. Army War College Quarterly )

Gen. William Odom brings to this work the same hardheaded realism that served him so well as an intelligence specialist on the Soviet Union. This realism enhances his assessment of the new security environment... (Robert A. Fangmeier, ENCOUNTER The Washington Times )
