Abstract:
By the time of his untimely death in 1983, Herman Kahn was recognized by both friends and intellectual adversaries as "one of the world's most creative and best minds." The current growing resurgence of interest in Kahn's ideas and intellectual legacy demonstrates the enduring relevance of his work.

The Essential Herman Kahn is an attempt to cope with this predicament and offer the public for the first time
