Product Information

Covers the significant persons, places, agencies, organizations, conferences, conventions, treaties, and acts that have influenced arms control and disarmament from the beginnings of recorded western history to present times. The introductory essay reviews where arms control has come from and where it is heading during this period of global transition, as well as how the definitions of the terms and the conduct of the field have developed, and why arms control and disarmament remain both very much alive and relevant, today and into the future. A list of acronyms and abbreviations, a chronology, and a comprehensive bibliography complement the dictionary entries of this unique reference.

While the subject of this dictionary is a specialized one, its importance cannot be denied, for, as the authors point out, the existence of effective arms control treaties helped to preserve the world from catastrophe during the Cold War period to which the majority of the articles in the book refer...The Dictionary would indeed by a useful resource for the instruction both of aspiring politicians and of general readers and students who wish to inform themselves on a subject still vital to the future of the world., Larsen and Smith's dictionary chronicles key terms, personalities, events and agreements in the history of arms control and disarmament, and includes both traditional and nontraditional approaches. In addition to the 1,000-plus dictionary entries, the text features a chronological timeline from 1100 B.C. to 2004, a brief introductory essay, and an extensive bibliography, organized thematically into sections on history and negotiations, institutions, regional perspectives, war prevention, reducing the consequences of war, reducing the costs of war preparation, journals and internet websites. For policy practitioners, researchers, and students., This work is a valuable introduction to those desirous of learning more about arms control and disarmament in international diplomacy and security policy....highly recommended for academic libraries., Larsen and Smith "s dictionary chronicles key terms, personalities, events and agreements in the history of arms control and disarmament, and includes both traditional and nontraditional approaches.

In addition to more than 1,000 entries, this historical dictionary features a short essay on the history of arms control, an 8-page list of acronyms and abbreviations, a 36-page chronology, and a bibliography of more than 100 pages. The entries range in length from one sentence to short essays of several paragraphs, with most being a single paragraph. Indeed, in their effort to be comprehensive, the authors have included some entries with little or no apparent relationship to arms control; experts might quibble about other minor details. But there is no denying the value of this impressive compilation. The text is straightforward, understandable, and extensively cross-referenced; no other recent book is like it. This work deserves a place on the shelves of college and university libraries, public libraries, and collections specializing in international security affairs, and on the desks of arms control special, The introduction provides a good overview of arms control and disarmament throughout history and presents a case for continued relevance in today's world....As much of the formal literature in this field is technical, the authors have translated the terms into language understandable by the lay reader.
