Dr. Steven Kull is a political psychologist who studies public opinion on public policy. He has conducted polls and focus groups in over 30 countries around the world. He has led in-depth studies in the United States and the Muslim world, as well as numerous large multi-nation studies of world public opinion. Kull appears regularly in international media and has testified to or consulted with the U. S. Congress, the U. S. State Department, the United Nations, NATO, the European Commission, and other agencies. Kull is director of the Program for Public Consultation (PPC), part of the School of Public Policy at the University of Maryland. PPC was established to develop the methods and theory of public consultation and to conduct public consultations. Kull is also Founder and President of Voice of the People (VOP), a nonpartisan organization that seeks to re-anchor the United States' democracy in its founding principles by giving 'We the People' a greater role in government. Kull graduated from the University of California in 1972 with a B.A. in Psychology and from the Saybrook Institute in 1980 with a Ph.D. in psychology.

The author's penetrating questioning uncovers two streams--one f traditional thinking, the other of adaptation to nuclear reality==that shape the visions of these leaders. He present evidence that even thought it no longer serves to enhance national security, the psychological drive to compete, along with an often unconscious wish to suppress feeling of vulnerability, strongly influences strategic thinking. These motivations are at odds with a growing awareness and acceptance of nuclear reality. This work provides a unique view of the defense establishment through a revealing psychological lens.…
