As we look at the nature of the international environment, there is no cause to believe that this dilemma will become any less pronounced in the future. The demands of national security and the accelerating rate at which decisions must be made argue for the development and implementation of the most effective management system possible. In this book, Christopher C. Shoemaker comes to grips with this daunting issue as few other authors have. His analysis and his prescriptions are based on a realistic assessment of the complexity of national security and of the inadequacy of past systems in dealing with the issues in a systematic fashion."
