About the book

"Oceanographers and the Cold War is about patronage, politics, and the community of scientists. It is the first book to examine the study of the oceans during the Cold War era and explore the international focus of American oceanographers. In this account, Hamblin demonstrates that to understand the history of American oceanography, one must consider its role in both conflict and cooperation with other nations." "Historians of science, environmental historians, and diplomatic historians alike will appreciate this book for its interweaving of science, the ocean environment, and international relations."--BOOK JACKET.
