Dr. Cote argues that the U.S. Navy's innovative response to the Soviet submarine fleet during the Cold War represents the third great battle for control of the seas in the 20th century. He provides a critical groundbreaking perspective on this battle-quite different from the two that preceded it. It was only with the development in the mid-1980s of truly quiet Soviet nuclear submarines that the U.S. Navy decisively confronted the antisubmarine warfare challenge. Cote details the events leading to that point and presents a critical study of technological innovation with clear implications for challenges in the 21st century. Dr. Cote is Assoc. Dir., Security Studies Program at MIT. He is a co-editor of the journal International Security. (Originally published by the Naval War College, this edition is a reprint.)
