"FROM CROSSBOW TO H-BOMB" by Bernard and Fawn Brodie.

The evolution of the weapons and tactics of warfare in the light of science and invention.

This book has to do not with sentiment, even in that grand sense in which we apply it to the generals of history, but with the application strictly of intelligence to the problem of war - of intelligence not as it sometimes expresses itself on the battlefield, but in quiet studies or laboratories far removed.

First Dell paperback edition published in 1962.
