This volume reviews the debates surrounding the anti-ballistic
missile (ABM) defense systems and their deployment by George W.
Bush, allowing readers to assess for themselves the significance of
Bush's decisions. The Missile Defense Systems of George W. Bush: A
Critical Assessment asks and answers a number of pressing questions
about Bush's decision to deploy ground-based missiles. Has the
system become reliable? If not, what are the prospects for it to
become effective? What have the fiscal costs been? What was the
political impact of efforts to expand ABM systems to Europe? This
is the only major book that brings together all of the
factors—historical and current—to allow readers to assess
President Bush's decisions for themselves. Opening with an
extensive history of missile defense, the book analyzes Bush's
efforts to establish ground-based missiles in Eastern Europe, as
well as the impact of his decisions. Both the administration's
policies and evaluations and those of critical observers are
presented. President Obama's program for missile defense is
reviewed as well. A final chapter evaluates the technical progress
of the various ABM systems and weighs the political dimensions of
the deployment decision and the cost of the undertaking to date.
