  <abstract>The book reflects on strategic doctrines such as deterrence, arms races, crisis behavior, and alliance politics, and surveys the changing perceptions of nuclear risk from the 1950s through later decades.

Laurence Martin (editor) was a respected strategic thinker and policy analyst who engaged deeply with international security issues. His work often emphasized the importance of deterrence stability, balancing conventional and nuclear forces, and the limits of disarmament without credible defense.</abstract>
