Britain and ballistic missile defence, 1942-2002

by Jeremy Stocker

"Britain was the first country to come under sustained ballistic missile attack, during 1944-45. Defence against ballistic missiles has been a persistent, if highly variable, subject of political policy and technical investigation ever since." "This book is primarily aimed at students of post-war British foreign and defence policies, but will also be of interest to informed general readers."--BOOK JACKET.
