- W8693485 abstract "This voluminous book with its twenty-nine chapters, each written by a different author, is almost evenly divided into two parts, one devoted to do mestic issues, and the other to foreign affairs. The authors, writing on domestic problems, stress the dominant issue of inflation and recommend such remedies as the outlawing of wage and price controls, the replacement of the progressive income tax by one flat tax rate, which, of course, would benefit wealthy people, the elimination of federal budget deficits by a prohibitive constitutional amendment, the deregulation of crude oil and natural gas prices, and the removal of all controls on gaso line prices. This is a program acceptable for conservatives but probably not for the majority of American citizens. The second part, devoted to foreign affairs, will be of wider appeal, be cause it presents the challenges abroad to the United States in a way which will not raise many objections. Fred Charles Ikle (pp. 419-443) claims that the Soviet Union is in the process of gaining superiority over the United States in both nuclear and conventional armaments as well as in military research. The remedies he suggests are as follows: an American nuclear capability to threaten convin cingly the Soviet Union with a retaliatory counter-attack of such devastating force that it would be a sufficient deterrent against a Soviet first strike; the increase in the size of American conventional forces; the intensification of American covert operations abroad; and the most stringent control over the transfer of technology to the USSR. The arguments advanced by Ikle are seconded by Amoretta M. Hoeber and Joseph D. Douglass who oppose the ratification of the SALT II agree ment, which, they think, would concede nuclear superiority to the Russians. These two authors claim that Soviet military doctrine accepts the possibility of a nuclear war which would result in the defeat of America and Soviet sur vival in spite of damages which would be bearable. The Russians rely in their strategic theory on the surprise first-strike which would disorganize American capacity to counter-attack. These authors recommend the quantita tive and qualitative improvement in the American nuclear force (pp. 445-467). Ray S. Cline demands an increase in the budget and manpower of the C.I.A. in order to ensure the flow of better information from abroad (pp. 469-496). 202" @default.
