The Defence of the Realm in the 1980s


Overview

This book, first published in 1980, is a close analysis of Britain’s defence policy in the latter years of the Cold War. It examines the factors that limited the choices available to the governments of the day, including technological advances, costs, changes in the balance of power, strategic thinking in both West and East, and the consequent implications for the development of forces and arms.
