The full inside story The full and fascinating inside story of Anglo-American nuclear relations from 1957 to 1962 is told for the first time in this book. This period saw the creation of a close and exclusive relationship of nuclear collaboration between Britain and the United States, with an agreement on atomicco-operation, the establishment of the facilities for US nuclear submarines in the UK, and the sale of US missiles, including Thor and Polaris for the British strategic submarine force. Revelations from formerly top secret documents Ian Clark''s detailed analysis of newly declassified official documents reveals that, while special, the Anglo-American nuclear partnership was not without tension and rivalry. Prime Minister Harold Macmillan sought to combine interdependence--which reduced costs--with national policies on nuclearstrategy, NATO, nuclear co-operation with France, and nuclear testing; the result was conflict with US administrations. Dr Clark examines such critical issues as British nuclear targeting of the Soviet Union and co-ordination with US nuclear war plans, cancellation of the Blue Streak missile, the bargain over Skybolt and the Holy Loch base, the diplomacy of the Skybolt crisis in 1962, and British ambitions forPolaris. The frank revelations contained in the formerly top secret British and American documents from the period enable him to offer fundamentally new and sometimes controversial interpretations of events in this dramatic period.

We all do the most amazing and remarkable things when we are in the grip of desire, and at the time, it all seems so real and earnest. In order to convert drama into comedy, we shall take a small trip through time and see how our noble ancestors behaved when driven by love - or lust, for that matter. Although inspired by the bedroom farces of the nineteenth century, I have corrected the gender inequities of that time to bring us closer to plausibility. I show women as they should be shown, not only possessing freedom of choice but taking the lead as often as not. Although the names of real historical persons are used, the situations described are fictional - or legendary, if you prefer. I am a story-teller, not an historian.

What exactly is it we wage when we wage war? This is the crucial question addressed in this largely rewritten edition of the author''s classic text. The range of possible answers to it has already framed much of the ethical discourse that can be conducted about war, as well as about other uses of force. Only when some of those fundamental issues have been clarified can we then safely foray into the dense ethical thicket that surrounds this topic. The book shows how recent developments in warfare, particularly related to new technologies and asymmetries, have disturbed traditional paradigms.

SecretsWe all keep them but we don''t keep them because they are secrets, we keep them because of fear.
