The book is divided into three parts. The first part covers the period from the founding of the Alliance in 1949 to the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. This period saw the Alliance's membership grow from 12 to 16 countries, and it faced a number of major challenges, including the Berlin Blockade, the Korean War, and the Cuban Missile Crisis.

The second part of the book covers the period from the collapse of the Soviet Union to the 9/11 attacks. This period saw the Alliance undergo a major transformation, as it adapted to the end of the Cold War and the emergence of new threats, such as terrorism and proliferation.

The third part of the book covers the period from the 9/11 attacks to the present day. This period has seen the Alliance continue to adapt to new challenges, such as the rise of China and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.

The book is written by a team of leading experts on the Atlantic Alliance. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of the Alliance, its current challenges, and its future prospects.
