This book focuses on the activities of the scientific staff of the
British National Institute of Oceanography during the Cold War.
Revealing how issues such as intelligence gathering, environmental
surveillance, the identification of 'enemy science', along with
administrative practice informed and influenced the Institute's
Cold War program. In turn, this program helped shape decisions
taken by Government, military and the civil service towards science
in post-war Britain. This was not simply a case of government
ministers choosing to patronize particular scientists, but a
relationship between politics and science that profoundly impacted
on the future of ocean science in Britain.
