From Wikipedia:
Purports to be the report of a government panel. The book includes the claim it was authored by a Special Study Group of fifteen men whose identities were to remain secret, and that it was not intended to be made public. It details the analyses of a government panel which concludes that war, or a credible substitute for war, is necessary if governments are to maintain power. The book was aNew York Timesbestsellerand has been translated into fifteen languages. Controversy still swirls over whether the book was a satiric hoax aboutthink-tanklogic and writing style or the genuine product of a secret government panel. The document is a favorite among conspiracy theorists, who reject the statement made in 1972 by satiristLeonard Lewinthat the book was a spoof and that he was its author.[1]
