[gargamelscat · Rating 4 out of 5]

Well written and balanced assessment of the man and the administrations he was involved with. Revealing on Kissinger's characteristic sharp practices around SALT negotiations. Probably somewhat limited as much of the classified material around NSC 68 and arms control at time of publication must since have been released.
