Book Description
The document records the main stream of thought, within the United States Air Force concerning the role to be played by an air and aerospace power in the struggle for national survival. The history develops the theme of institutional thought, describes the organizational framework in which the thinking took place and identifies individual thinkers and their ideas. The story begins with the first heavier-than-air flight in 1903 and arbitrarily closes at the end of 1964. Acceptance of this terminal date prevents a coverage of Air Force thinking about counter-insurgency warfare and the military operations in Southeast Asia, which were not yet fully developed by the close of 1964.

Book Description
This book, first published in 1985, analyses the factors that have shaped the militarization of space. By examining in great detail the determinants of U.S. policy, it explains why for over 25 years space did not become the scene of an arms race, and why this began to change in the late 1970s. Both superpowers did, however, develop a limited anti-satellite capability in the 1960s, and these programmes are also discussed.
