Description: This book concentrates primarily on the historical development of the Cold War. But the "overview" concentrates more heavily on World War II in terms of background while the "origins" goes back in time to the beginning of the modern era in Western Society. The book also deals with the various "wildcards" of the postwar era. Among these were Eurocommunism and the developments of terrorist activity (in Germany and elsewhere) in the 1970s.
