Anybody concerned about the maintenance of peace in our world, and in prospects of reaching agreements on arms control and disarmament, is bound to be interested in one of the key pre-conditions for related international treaties: the verification of compliance with such treaties. This book presents an exposition of developments in science and practice in international verification. It contains an account of the experience with new practical results of scientific research, devoted to solving verification problems in areas where agreements have not yet been concluded. Among the topics covered are: INF Treaty, nuclear test ban, control of mobile missiles, fissile material, demilitarization of space, stability and reduction of conventional forces, and a ban on chemical weapons.
