Amazon.com: Cold War Statesmen Confront the Bomb: Nuclear Diplomacy since 1945: 9780198294689: Gaddis, John Lewis, Gordon, Philip H., May, Ernest R., Rosenberg, Jonathan: Books
This book is a path-breaking work that uses biographical techniques to test one of the most widely debated questions in international politics: Did the advent of the nuclear bomb prevent the Third World War? The book's authors argue almost unanimously that nuclear weapons did have a significant effect on the thinking of the leading statesmen of the nuclear age, but a dissenting epilogue from John Mueller challenges this thesis.
