“Dr. Kissinger has produced a provocative and authoritative reappraisal of the Atlantic Alliance. He is sympathetic to the Alliance and searches for constructive approaches to the structural problems that the Alliance has had, and to the political and strategic issues that it faces. This book is important reading. . . . [Dr. Kissinger] has interesting insight to provide on M.L.F., Charles de Gaulle, and West Germany. His book is well documented and forceful and should provoke enlightened public discussion.”– Library Journal
