The Sputnik Challenge, Hardback Book

Hardback

Description

Professor Divine, one of the leading American diplomatic historians, here examines the major controversy of Eisenhower's second term: the successful Soviet launching of Sputnik, which triggered a long period of public anxiety over the quality of American strategic, technological, and educational policies.

He traces the dramatic and long-reaching impact of these events, especially on defence strategy and educational programmes.
