Summary
"This book analyzes US nuclear policy from 1977 to 1987, during which the Carter and Reagan administrations devised and implemented NATO's dual-track decision of 1979. It prescribed US missile deployments in Europe and arms talks with Moscow, which produced the INF Treaty in 1987. This book also examines the agreement's demise"-- Provided by publisher.
