Nitze's reflections on the issues he has faced, the decisions he has made, the people he has known, and the presidents he has served in his almost fifty years inside the top echelons of Washington policy circles. In the detailed and forthright manner for which he is famed, Ambassador Nitze discusses the major events of his illustrious career: the formation of the Marshall Plan, the Korean War, the Berlin Wall crisis, NATO, Vietnam, the Committee on the Present Danger, the SALT treaties, and the ongoing weapons negotiations. Throughout his long career, Nitze has been at the center of American policy making, serving as a member of the United States Strategic Bombing Survey directly after World War II; acting as adviser to President Kennedy during the Cuban Missile Crisis; and engaging in the famous "walk in the woods" with Soviet negotiator Yuli Kvitsinskiy during the U.S. - USSR Intermediate-range Nuclear Forces (INF) talks. Here, too, are incisive portraits of many of the people Nitze has known: presidents from Roosevelt to Reagan; secretaries of state, including General George C. Marshall, Dean Acheson, John Foster Dulles, and George Shultz; statesmen and policymakers such as James Forrestal, Will Clayton, Charles "Chip" Bohlen, George F. Kennan, and Robert McNamara; and foreign leaders, East and West alike, including a candid look at. Mikhail Gorbachev. Centering on his own fields of expertise - economics, nuclear matters, and negotiations - Ambassador Nitze provides an overview of the challenges he has faced and the reasons informing the decisions he has made over the past five decades in the developing and ever-changing relationship between the United States and the Soviet Union. Like the memoirs of Dean Acheson and Henry Kissinger, From Hiroshima to Glasnost is a record-settling account of major events in world history by one of the most influential and respected policymakers of our time. Since the mid 1940s, Paul H. Nitze has been one of the key "wise men" of American government. Among the many positions he has held are Director of the State Department Policy Planning Staff; Secretary of the Navy; Deputy Secretary of Defense; arms control negotiator; and. Ambassador at Large and Special adviser to the President and Secretary of State on Arms Control Matters." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.…

Hardcover. Condizione: very good condition. Condizione sovraccoperta: very good. First Edition. First Printing. xxii, 504, 920 pages. Footnotes. Illustrations (with 16 pages of plates). Appendix. Index. Compelling memoir of this former ambassador and his work under Presidents for fifty years. Paul Henry Nitze (January 16, 1907 October 19, 2004) was an American businessman and government official who served as United States Deputy Secretary of Defense, U.S. Secretary of the Navy, and Director of Policy Planning for the U.S. State Department. He is best known for being the principal author of NSC 68 and the co-founder of Team B. He helped shape U.S. Cold War defense policy over the course of numerous presidential administrations. preeminent figure in Washington and a key policymaker, Nitze here provides a memoir with a sweeping inside view of key post-1945 foreign-policy events--the Marshall Plan, Berlin blockade, H-bomb decision, Korean War, Cuban Missile Crisis, Vietnam, SALT I and II, INF and SDI--but the writing is as factually dull as a briefing paper. Nitze relates his early background only briefly and concentrates on his long years of public service. Born in 1907 in Amherst, educated at Harvard, an investment banker in the 1930's, Nitze entered public service during WW II, working for most subsequent Presidents, including Bush, for whom he is a top arms negotiator. Major policy-making events of his career range from the 1940's US Strategic Bombing Survey to the arms accords of 1970's and 1980's. Nitze played key roles in the 1972 SALT I and 1979 SALT II negotiations, the results of which represented the first steps in exerting control over the nuclear arms race. A tough negotiator, deeply knowledgeable about the intricacies of arms, Nitze felt the Soviets gained the most from SALT I in that is recognized their existing lead in missiles but that, with the US also winning key concessions, the final result was worthwhile. SALT II, on the other hand, gave Nitze doubts, and he recommended changes to the US Senate, which never ratified it. Regarding the INF negotiations of the 1980's, Nitze here reveals details of his famous "walk in the woods" with his Soviet counterpart, Yuli Kvitsinskiy. In the five Summits of the Reagan years, Nitze proved to be a strong backer of SDI, and he does not believe its theoretical development and testing are in conflict with the first SALT agreement. Gorbachev, he feels, has great "tactical brilliance" in foreign policy but is much less effective domestically. An important, up-close account that's nearly spoiled by its wooden style.
