| Summary: | Presents a case for the United Kingdom to adopt a defensive deterrence approach as a safer and cheaper alternative to simple arms reduction within the framework of the existing defense policy. Draws on little known military scenarios, such as secret contingency plans for nuclear war in Europe, and new high-tech weapons, to show what might happen without a change of direction.
