China And The Bomb

China and the Bomb (1965) by Morton H. Halperin – Pall Mall Press
From Crappy Old Books – because Cold War paranoia deserves a second life.

In China and the Bomb, published just after Beijing’s first nuclear test, Morton H. Halperin delivers a tense, clear-eyed analysis of how China’s entry into the nuclear club reshaped global strategy, Western fears, and the delicate dance of deterrence. Written in 1965 at the height of Cold War nerves, this slim volume is part policy briefing, part political crystal ball—and unsettlingly prescient.

Our copy? Let’s just say it’s aged like a fallout shelter manual—browned pages, Cold War mustiness, and possibly a few notes in the margin from someone who was very, very worried about Mao.

Good condition. Dustjacket is good but has slight tear to front cover but is all there, as can be seen in image.
