Synopsis

The best-selling journalist's vivid report on the danger from within that threatens America's military and our national security- now updated and in paperback.

With President Clinton's current push for increased military spending, William Greider's message is all the more urgent: America must grasp the purpose and determine the future of our gargantuan military machine. With the collapse of Communism, do we really need this vast array of military power in fighting readiness? Why? Can we afford it? Called a 'smart and provocative critique of a system that is badly in need of reform' (Washington Post Book World) with the end of the Cold War ere- and the troubling consequences for our fighting forces and our country.
