Pr�sentation de l'�diteur :

This book examines an area of the world where arms control is almost non-existent-China, India, and Pakistan-and takes the unusual approach of considering the implications of conventional arms transfers, and in particular India's strategic defenses, for nuclear stability. Building on an analysis of their internal politics and attitudes to nuclear policies, it concludes that certain apparently defensive systems, particularly counter-air systems, have considerable implications for the retention of nuclear capabilities in the region.

Revue de presse :

this book ... does serve the purpose of highlighting the dangers of making one's biases the basis for analysis. (Bharat Karnad, Journal of Strategic Studies.)

An exceptionally well written report that fills a gap in the literature.
