The Phantom Defense: America's Pursuit of the Star Wars Illusion Hardcover - 2001
by Craig R. Eisendrath; Gerald E. Marsh (Joint Author); Melvin a. Goodman (Joint Author)
Each successive political administration has spent billions on defense systems that the authors claim, would never really work. Here they apply their combined experience and expertise to argue that thoughtful democracy is the real answer.
First line
The history of anti-missile defense, whether called anti-ballistic missiles, "Star Wars," or the National Missile Defense system is, in Yogi Berra's ironic words, a continuing story of "deja vu all over again."
