Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from Arms and Arms Control: A Symposium

Many of the essays are printed in full. A number of them have been shortened, with the kind permission of the authors and publishers, to emphasize their distinctive contributions and to enhance readability. It should be clear that each selection is but a sample of the author's thinking on the subject. The editor hopes it is an honest and representative sample. N o excerpt should be regarded as a substitute for the original book or arti cle. If this collection stimulates the reader to turn to longer and more comprehensive treatises, it will have served its purpose well.

Each selection is preceded by a brief introduction indicating the author's perspective or summarizing his conclusions. In many cases, subheads have been added to the original essay and footnotes have been eliminated. An annotated bibliography of books, pamphlets, and periodicals on arms and arms control, compiled by the editor, is included as the final selection in the book with the hope that it will add to the value of the book as an introduction and guide to a rapidly growing body of thought.

Perhaps this is the place to say a word about several basic books that contribute to and reflect the current arms control consensus. Six books come to mind, all of which were published in 1961.
