"Extends his classic Strategy of Conflict to provide timely, timeless guidance for statecraft."—Graham Allison, author of Nuclear Terrorism: the Ultimate Preventable Catastrophe
"Tom Schelling is the most significant nuclear strategist of the past half-century. Arms and Influence was essential reading for any serious student of the subject throughout the Cold War. With his new preface and foreword, Schelling demonstrates that in a world facing the threat of nuclear terrorism and belligerent states such as
North Korea and Iran, his ideas and examples are vital if we are to continue 'the tradition of non-use' of these ultimate weapons of devastation."—Michael Nacht, University of California, Berkeley
