00000nam a2200000 a 4500 Freedman, Lawrence aut Verfasser/-in Krieg Frieden Strategie Bildband Atlas Nuklearwaffe Militärgeografie Atomzeitalter Atlas of Global Strategy War and Peace in the Nuclear Age Macmillan 1985 An atlas designed for quick reference on strategic concerns. Freedman, a noted British strategist, overcomes the picture-book format (there are some 90 photos of dubious value) by combining an unbiased narrative of the superpower relationship with innovative cartography. The text demonstrates a paralysis at the superpower level. The 120 maps illustrate and expand upon this theme by adding a geographical perspective to the military history of the period. Further, they provide a tremendous amount of statistical and chronological data on force levels, the arms race, alliances, strategic resources, and conflicts since 1945, information that is not normally found in one place.
