This work stresses the importance, in making any choice of
strategies-including the decision to use or refrain from using
nuclear weapons-of gauging the intent behind the opponent's
military moves. Dr. Brodie also suggests that the use or threat of
use of tactical nuclear weapons may lead to de-escalation, that is,
may check rather than promote the expansion of hostilities. The
author applies his ideas about escalation to several imagined
situations, examining them in relation to experiences in Europe, in
the second Cuba crisis, and in Asia. Originally published in 1966.
The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books
from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books
while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase
access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of
books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in
1905.
