Instead of fearing a nuclear war between two superpowers, the world now watches smaller conflicts warily, concerned that frustration or bitterness may lead to last resort measures. In this book, Martin Van Creveld addresses the question: Will fear and respect for nuclear weapons be sufficient to prevent their use despite the implacable hatred that characterizes many ancient regional rivalries?
