Arms Treaties is an indispensable quick reference guide on the nuclear weapons and missile arsenals and the treaties and agreements created to control them.
The enormous destructive power of nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons makes them fundamentally different from other weapons. To reduce the danger of these weapons and certain types of conventional weapons that cause indiscriminate destruction, a system of arms treaties and agreements has been created to reduce and eliminate existing stockpiles and to prevent the spread of the technologies needed to make them.
Arms Treaties is a must-have App for researchers, students, practitioners, and anyone interested in understanding global affairs.
