Ballistic-Missile Defence and Strategic Stability / Edition 1

by Dean A. Wilkening

Overview

This paper offers what is currently lacking in the debate: a quantitative analysis of how well defences would have to work to meet specific security objectives, and what level of defence might upset strategic stability.
