Super Bomb: Organizational Conflict and the Development of the Hydrogen Bomb
This book unveils the story of the events leading up to President Harry S. Truman's 1950 decision to develop a “super,” or hydrogen, bomb. That fateful decision and its immediate consequences are detailed in a diverse and complete account built on newly released archives and previously hidden contemporaneous interviews with more than sixty political, military, and scientific figures who were involved in the decision. The book presents the expecta…
Super Bomb: Organizational Conflict and the Development of the Hydrogen Bomb
Decision Making in Using Assassinations in International Relations
ASSASSINATIONS UNDERTAKEN FOR FOREIGN POLICY reasons can have dramatic consequences, as the killing of Archduke Franz Ferdinand a little over a hundred years ago illustrates. In recent years, there has been increased scholarly interest regarding states engaging in assassination.

Weapons, Doctrine, and Arms Control: A Case from the Good Old Days
Instruments of warfare should be such as do not inflict unnecessary injury or damage. The principle of humanity condemns all instruments and methods of warfare that involve wanton cruelty, savagery or treachery. It condemns the ill-treatment of the helpless and the disarmed, including wounded and prisoners, the aged and feeble, women and children. When, however, one of the belligerents disregards the principle and usages of war, the other is enti…

we must take, so far as we can, a picture of the world into our minds. Is it not a startling circumstance for one thing that the great discoveries of science, that the quiet study of men in laboratories, that the thoughtful developments which have taken place in quiet lecture rooms, have now been turned to the destruction of civilization? ... The enemy whom we have just overcome had at its seats of learning some of the principal centres of scient…

Civil-Naval Politics in World War I
The determination of military policy can be generally conceived as a matter of answering, in order, two questions: for what purposes is military power required, and how much is required? Unfortunately, these questions are more easily asked than answered. The first—military power for what and against whom?—is complicated by the fact that the government is usually confronted with a variety of foreign policy contingencies, many of which seem to call…
