First published in 1977, Arms Control and Technological Innovation is primarily concerned with three subjects: the causes of the arms race; the consequences of the arms race to the world; and the control of the arms race. Written by experts in the field, it brings themes like new technologies and new weapon systems; new tactics to replace tactical nuclear weapons in Europe; the Anglo-American nuclear relationship; strategic arms limitation and military strategic concepts; and a new approach to strategic arms limitation and reduction.

The book argues that the principal problem of the arms race, according to several lectures, is that weapons and delivery-systems technology have developed so much as to threaten the survival of civilization itself. The pace of technological change is proceeding more rapidly than ever before and there is serious doubt whether political institutions are adapting to this change in time to avoid devastating consequences to the world. This book is a must read for scholars and researchers of military and strategic studies, international relations, international politics and geopolitics.
