The authors have assumed that the vast size of the Soviets' nuclear arsenal and considerable energy reserves, and that their vigorous and communicative new leader, Mikhail Gorbachev, their record of forceful interventions in Eastern Europe, Afghanistan, and Africa, and other indicators of ability to exert influence and control in world affairs were recognizable to most Americans.Menon, Rajan is the author of 'Limits to Soviet Power', published 1989 under ISBN 9780669132267 and ISBN 0669132268.
