The Cold War Past and Present (1987) analyses the generally antagonistic postwar relations between the Soviet Union and the West, particularly America. Following the uneasy wartime alliance, Russia's tightening grip on Eastern Europe and the Berlin Blockade ushered in the first of the 'cold wars', with different leaders down the decades bring thaws and frosts, all excellently examined here by a team of leading writers in the field.
