Arms and Influence
English
By (author): Thomas C. Schelling
This is a brilliant and hardheaded book. It will frighten those who prefer not to dwell on the unthinkable and infuriate those who have taken refuge in stereotypes and moral attitudinizing.Gordon A. Craig, New York Times Book Review
A grim but carefully reasoned and coldly analytical book. . . . One of the most frightening previews which this reviewer has ever seen of the roads that lie just ahead in warfare.Los Angeles Times
Originally published in 1966, this landmark book explores the ways in which military capabilitiesreal or imaginedare used, skillfully or clumsily, as bargaining power. Anne-Marie Slaughters new introduction to the work shows how Schellings frameworkconceived of in a time of superpowers and mutually assured destructionstill applies to our multipolar world, where wars are fought as much online as on the ground.
