Publisher's Synopsis
Reductions of conventional armed forces in Europe require qualitatively new levels in cooperative verification since hundreds of thousands of small and mobile weapons in a large area are involved. In this text, authors from science and industry, as well as diplomats and military officers, discuss verification in the context of current European political and military developments. They present basic verification methods for future treaties and explore options for international verification organizations. The text also covers verification research, verification of naval forces and verification of limits on military research and development.
