Strategy in the Missile Age first reviews the development of modern
military strategy to World War II, giving the reader a reference
point for the radical rethinking that follows, as Dr. Brodie
considers the problems of the Strategic Air Command, of civil
defense, of limited war, of counterforce or pre-emptive strategies,
of city-busting, of missile bases in Europe, and so on. The book,
unlike so many on modern military affairs, does not present a
program or defend a policy, nor is it a brief for any one of the
armed services. It is a balanced analysis of the requirements of
strength for the 1960's, including especially the military posture
necessary to prevent war. A unique feature is the discussion of the
problem of the cost of preparedness in relation to the requirements
of the national economy, so often neglected by other military
thinkers. Originally published in 1959. 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.
