This book offers the first comprehensive look at how the vast US intelligence network enables negotiators to forge viable arms control agreements. The intelligence role in all three phases of the arms control process is discussed - from the design phase when reliable information is needed, to the execution phase when proposals are modified, to the maintenance phase when agreed-upon obligations begin to constrain adversary behavior and compliance becomes the key political issue. Contributors include: former CIA Director William E. Colby; Douglas George, Chief of the CIA's Control Intelligence Staff, Admiral Bobby R. Inman, former NSA Director; Hans Mark, former Air Force Secretary and NSA administrator; Walt W. Rostow, National Security Adviser to President Johnson; and Paul Warnke, former Director of the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency and Chief Negotiator for SALT II.
