| Summary: | This book reassesses the nuclear strategy of the United States. Despite the appearance of continuity in official policy statements, views within the Obama and Trump administrations and across the larger defense policy community have diverged on the appropriate role of nuclear weapons in U.S. national security, the optimal nuclear strategy for advancing U.S. interests, force structure requirements and critical related issues. This is an important book for security and strategic studies and should be of interest to both scholars and practitioners in political science and international relations, especially in the field of nuclear weapons policy. |
