Descripción

First Edition, third printing. With a number of charts and tables. Large 8vo, original Princeton red cloth, the spine lettered in gilt and ruled in black, in the original dustjacket. xx, 668 pp. A fine copy but for a little spotting and dusting to the fore edges, the jacket is especially well preserved with just a light touch of rubbing at the edges.

Edizione: one of the preeminent futurists of the latter 20th century on the likely consequences of nuclear war. his recommendations on how to improve survivability made him the historical inspiration for the title character of stanley kubrick's brilliant black comedy film 'dr. strangelove'. for his uses of game theory he is also cited as the 'father of ccenario planning."
