<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Sharing the premise that an adequate, credible defense is the best guarantee of peace, sixteen distinguished foreign policy experts test the chances of peace by examining American foreign policy in<em> To Promote Peace. </em>Writing from the vantage point of the mid-1980s, these contributors approach a broad spectrum of the day's issues, developing fresh ideas and innovative policy approaches at every turn. Their essays--always challenging, clear, and incisive--furnish a realistic blueprint for peace in a world dominated by nuclear fantasies and cutting-edge technologies. </p> <p>Declaring that the Allies must bear their fair share of NATO's common defense, Melvyn Krauss argues the time has come to begin phasing out U.S. forces in Europe. Pointing out that compromised intelligence has squandered much of our technological advantage, Arnold Beichman demands that top priority be given to the establishment of an effective, sophisticated intelligence network. Showing the effects of détente-inspired build-down of tactical nuclear weapons, H. Joachim Maître explores a variety of weapons systems in achieving true mutual deterrence. </p> <p>From an analysis of the critical relationship between energy supply and peace to tough and well-reasoned predictions on what the future holds, <em>To Promote Peace </em>is not afraid to spark debate and seek new initiatives and direction. Its assessments consider global issues with more realism, more courage, and more certainty of the necessity of maintaining the United States as a forceful presence throughout the world.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Dennis L.
