Book
This is a reproduction edition from the 1976 publication. This is an exhaustive analysis of national and international arms control: its history, philosophy, cultural context, technology, economic and political ramifications, achievements, and future prospects. The book reflects the combined contributions of the Stanford Arms Control Group, an interdisciplinary group of nearly twenty faculty members who have been jointly teaching an undergraduate arms control course at Stanford University since 1971. The book will assist the general reader in understanding and forming intelligent opinions on such issues as the role of doctrine in military strategy, the difficulties posed by rapidly changing technology, and the value limitations of arms control as a way to prevent war. It is also designed as supplementary reading for courses in international relations, diplomatic history, and foreign policy. An appendix contains the text of eighteen major arms control agreements. The volume concludes with discussion questions and suggestions for further reading. John H. Barton is Professor of Law at Stanford University. Lawrence D. Weiler is Adjunct Professor of Political Science at Stanford University. This is a reproduction edition based on a scanned copy of the original work: Title International Arms Control: Issues and Agreements Authors Stanford Arms Control Group, John H. Barton, Lawrence D.
