They seem to be from 80’, and somehow made their way into a french university. Has anyone here gotten a chance to read them? Some of the chapters seem interesting, lots about DOD stuff.

    As others have said: the content is likely to be only of historical interest, because the fields they describe have progressed in understanding a great deal in the intervening decades. As a result, many, many historical books are of effectively negligible interest today.

    With that said, historical interest can sometimes be a lot: and those two seem to be from institutions which did seminal work (Rand Corporation, for example).
