Abstract: active defense, a history of warfare, balance of terror, modern defense prospects, and the development of weapon technology. The anthology is concluded by a historical review of traditional Western and particularly Christian criteria for justice in war. This book does not only address itself to Catholics. It may favorably be read by anyone who wants complementary views concerning the somewhat biased proposals put forward by the so-called Palme Committee (named after the present Swedish prime minister, Olof Palme).
