This is an account from 1982 of what the Cold War arms race looked like. Interesting to me was that, even given when it was written and without the hindsight we have now, it strongly implied that the US, substantially more so than the USSR, was the villain when it came to nuclear weapons. The US comes across as more interested in using nuclear weapons than just maintaining them as a deterrent, as more interested in making threats implicitly backed by nuclear weapons, as more stupid about constantly changing its nuclear support technology (MIRVs, GPS positioning, ABM systems) so as to undercut MAD.
