 UMass Amherst: University of Massachusetts Press
In building his argument, James Peck draws on a wide variety of little-known documents from the archives of the National Security Council and the CIA.
"James Peck's incisive and masterful analysis of hitherto largely secret intelligence documents goes beyond U.S. policy toward China per se to illuminate the ideals, ideologies, code words, and delusions that shaped global strategy from World War II into the 1960s.
It is almost impossible to believe the ideological fanaticism of the 'wise men present at the creation' and their successors revealed by Peck's richly documented and perceptive inquiry, their 'systematic inability to come to terms with the virulence and pervasiveness' of the 'visionary globalism' driving their strategic policies, which he more than amply demonstrates.
