Boulder, CO: Westview Press, 1984. Fourth printing [stated]. Trade paperback. xvi, 288 pages. Index. Cover has some wear and soiling. Inscribed by the author on the half-title page. Inscription reads To Vic Reis who already knows all this. Harold Brown. The author discusses U.S. defense needs in the overall context of foreign policy objectives and domestic policy constraints. This book is the result of Dr. Brown's work, his thinking his concerns, and the wisdom he gained during four years of responsibility for maintaining the country's security and managing its largest economic structure, the Department of Defense. Harold Brown (September 19, 1927 – January 4, 2019) was an American nuclear physicist who served as United States Secretary of Defense from 1977 to 1981, under President Jimmy Carter. In 1952, he joined the staff of the University of California Radiation Laboratory at Livermore and became its director in 1960, succeeding Edward Teller. Brown led a team of six other physicists who used some of the first computers, along with mathematics and engineering, to reduce the size of thermonuclear warheads for strategic military use. Brown and his team helped make Livermore's reputation by designing nuclear warheads small and light enough to be placed on the Navy's nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines. He served as senior science adviser at the 1958-1959 Conference on the Discontinuance of Nuclear Tests. As Secretary of Defense, he set the groundwork for the Camp David Accords, took part in strategic arms negotiations with the Soviet Union, and supported, unsuccessfully, ratification of the SALT II treaty.
