Recenzje

"This book is a timely, well-researched and finely articulated account on the history of the SALT process of arms control. Broad in scope and drawing from an impressive wealth of archival sources, the book details how technology and personality influenced US and Soviet arms control policies." Stephan Kieninger, Mannheim University
