Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Brilliant analysis of US nuclear and military strategy
Some books don't date even when times change. This well-researched, clearly written, extremely scary analysis of US nuclear and military strategy was published in the 1980s, when there was a Red Menace, but its main points remain as valid and alarming today as when it was written.

Putting US nuclear strategy and weapons systems decisions in historical context, Axelrod and Kaku (both physics professors, one at Michigan, the other at CCNY) show how US nuclear policy fits into a global warfighting policy aimed at establishing absolute unilateral US dominance in any military conflict. Unlike many military and strategic analyses, the book puts the issues into a larger political and economic context, explaining US military policy as part of a general plan to establish economic control over both poorer third world nations with valuable natural resources and potential wealthy European or Japanese competitors ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A book everyone should own!
In a world where information was freely exchanged where the media existed to inform the public on the most important things, this book would be promoted as an essential for any person who claims to be informed. Instead, it is a secret, passed around by the knowledgeable, those not going along with the program, fighters for humanity.

From World War Two until the days of the Reagan Star Wars project when this book was written, THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT'S CENTRAL PLAN WAS TO BE ABLE TO LAUNCH A NUCLEAR WAR AGAINST THE SOVIET UNION AND PERHAPS CHINA.

This is proved in this book by documentation from United States government documents released through the Freedom of Information Act. In 1947, when the Berlin Crisis broke out, Truman sent the atomic bombers to England to launch war with the Soviet Union, but could not wage war because their were not enough atomic bombs (a chronic problem ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great read
I am not reading this book right now, but my significant other is and he can't get enough of it! I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in how the U.S. got itself in and out of the situations it has over the last several decades.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The War to End All Wars?
Every time one thinks that the level of evil to which the military-industrial-corporate media can stoop has been reached, along comes more information to tell us we haven't yet reached that level.

Authors Kaku and Axelrod have produced a book written in the style I enjoy the most--using the government's own primary source documents to impeach them.

They document the insanity of our fathers using their own words to pitch them upon their own pitards.

The volume contains quotes from hitherto secret NSC and Joint Chiefs of Staff documents outlining the insantiy, the ends of destruction to which cold war warriors could go to "win" a war with the Soviet Union, or anyone else who dared to stand in the way of American imperialism.

Fast forward to the "first strike" of Bush against Iraq. In reading this volume, one can easily find that cold war warriors of the past developed the "first ... Read More
