[A] valuable guide to the theory and practice of arms control. * Foreign Affairs * This is one of the most important books on deterrence, strategic issues, nuclear weapons, and arms control to be published in many years. The scholarship reflected in this book is superior. * H-Diplo * Arms Control for the Third Nuclear Age performs a valuable service to scholars and policy makers alike by excavating the record of U.S.-Soviet arms control during the Cold War and examining it under the light of current circumstances. * H-Diplo * Arms Control for the Third Nuclear Age focuses on the importance of reviving arms control to enhance strategic stability in the context of a dangerous new nuclear age. Cooper makes a strong case for revisiting the Cold War-era arms control negoti- ations and agreements: these episodes provide important insights for 'navigating an uncontrolled arms race between major nuclear rivals' * International Affairs * Cooper masterfully blends international-relations theories with a historical account of efforts to achieve nuclear arms control during the Cold War. This book is political-science research at its best. * The Nonproliferation Review *
