Intended for use as a text in courses on national security, arms
control, and peace studies, this collection of statements by world
leaders and eminent scholars offers an accurate and comprehensive
guide through the maze of claims and criticisms about "Star Wars,"
the sensationally controversial effort of the Reagan administration
to reorient U.S. nuclear strategy to strategic defense. The
contents include a thorough introduction by the editors and
individual chapters outlining the strategic defense initiative as
originally conceived and subsequently modified by the Reagan
administration; the arguments for and against the plan's strategic
and technical feasibility; and assessments of the harmful and
constructive effects of strategic defense on U.S.-Soviet and
U.S.-allied relations.
