Lindsey was, for baby-boomer scholars who encountered him, an impressive and somewhat mysterious figure. Doctor Lindsey, as we invariably addressed him, sat just next to the heart of the Canadian defence establishment, and when he chose to speak he was always worth listening to. Shedding light on operational analysis, this book unpacks Lindsey's sharp eye and shrewd analytical skills on the major defence issues of the period. - Joseph Jockel, Department of Canadian Studies, St Lawrence University This is an excellent review of George R. Lindsey's long and distinguished career. Discussing key historical developments and subjects, including nuclear weapons and strategy, NATO history and strategy, operational research, and Canada-US defence relations, Lindsey's writing is consistently clear and precise. - Andrew Richter, Department of Political Science, University of Windsor Author InformationGeorge Lindsey graduated with distinction from the University of Toronto in 1942 before enlisting in the Royal Canadian Artillery to serve with the Canadian Army Operational Research Group. He also served overseas with the British Army Operational Research Group. Lindsey’s life’s work stands as an invaluable source pertaining to technological interpretations. Matthew S.
