520    The Cold War had seemed like a permanent fixture in global
       politics, and until its denouement, no Western or Soviet 
       politician had foreseen that an epoch defined by games of 
       irreconcilable one-upmanship between the world's most 
       heavily armed superpowers would end in their lifetimes. 
       Under the long, forbidding shadow of the Cold War, even 
       the smallest miscalculation from either side could result 
       in catastrophe. Everything changed in March 1985, when 
       Mikhail Gorbachev became the leader of the Soviet Union. 
       Just four years later, the Cold War and the arms 
       competition was over. The USSR and the US had peacefully 
       and abruptly achieved an astonishing political settlement.
       But it was not preordained that a global crisis of 
       unprecedented scale could and would be averted peaceably. 
       Drawing on new archival research, Robert Service's 
       gripping new investigation of the final years of the Cold 
       War - the first to give equal attention to the internal 
       deliberations from both sides of the Iron Curtain - opens 
       a window onto the dramatic years that would irrevocably 
       alter the world's geopolitical landscape, and the men at 
       their fore.
