I found this linked-to on former Cold Warrior Jerry Pournelle's site, where he noted:

Richard Pipes' . . . Survival Is Not Enough was a key book in the Cold War. It says in the article that he wasn't interested in science and technology. He certainly was not compared to Possony who understood that technology was the key to winning the Cold War; but I was with Pipes in Moscow in 1989 for a couple of week, and had breakfast with him several times and shared a seat on a bus with him on half-hour trips, and I found he was quite interested in technology, and had read The Strategy of Technology.
There are worthwhile parallels to be drawn between Cold War history and our current conflict with Islamofascists.
