The Absolute Weapon

Here is the 214 pg 1st Edition of the privately owned hardcover by Frederick Dunn, Bernard Brodie, Arnold Wolfers, Percy Corbett and William Fox as edited by Bernard Brodie from Harcourt, Brace and Co., and copyrighted 1946. Contents of the book include the Intro entitled The Common Problem and 3 Parts entitled: Part I: The Weapon: War in the Atomic Age and Implications for Military Policy; Part II: Political Consequences: The Atomic Bomb in Soviet-American Relations and Effect on International Organization; and Part III: International Control of Atomic Weapons. The book has no dust cover. The khaki colored boards has some minor edge wear and some light rub/color lift, yet overall the boards are straight and very presentable. Inside, there is a rough 2” inside edge tear to the second fly leaf and a couple of light stain spots at the end papers, yet the remainder of the pages are clean, tear free and the binding is sound.
