The most important acknowledgment that can be made is to this book’s various authors. They quite literally wrote the book. It’s also important to recognize the various foundations that supported this project, including the William H. Donner Foundation and the staffs at the National Strategy Information Center and the Nonproliferation Policy Education Center. Finally, Marvin Bassett of Air University Press, who edited the volume and oversaw its production, deserves mention for his patience and counsel, as does David Blair of the Air War College, who first suggested publishing the book.
