"Strategy in the Missile Age" was written during the dawn of the
nuclear age, when the advent of intercontinental ballistic missiles
necessitated a massive rethinking of military strategy and power.
Originally published in 1959, it retains ample relevance today for
its discussion of the origins of air power, its cornerstone
position in the evolution of Cold War era nuclear strategy, and its
treatment of preventive and pre-emptive attacks, deterrence, and
the economics of strategy. Brodie, who believed nuclear war was
"unthinkable," thought much about the unthinkable and helped
provide an intellectual framework for avoiding a nuclear
catastrophe. Nearly fifty years after its initial publication, and
to celebrate RAND's 60th Anniversary, RAND brings this classic work
back into print in paperback and digital formats.
