All the elements are here: a relevant history, including an illuminating chart on page 6 on the time pattern of state acquisition of nuclear weapons; a virtual inventory of preventive actions; a searching examination of the circumstances when preemptive military action may be necessary; the problems of intelligence and monitoring; a new look at ballistic missile defenses; the importance of the U.S. example (as in testing); and ideas about what Russia and the United States can do with their special responsibilities. The authors develop the necessary interplay of strength and diplomacy as they address current problems. Work your way through the issues that are presented in settings in various countries. You will find, as I have, that the analytical framework will help you develop your own ideas of how to! address critical problems." From the Foreword by Former Secretary of State George P. Shultz The mortal danger of nuclear weapons is unique in its terrifying potential for devastation on an unprecedented and unimaginable scale. In this book, Sidney D. Drell and James E. Goodbyeach with more than twenty years' experience in national security issues both in public and private capacitiesreview the main policy issues surrounding nonproliferation of nuclear weapons. They address the specific actions that the community of nationswith American leadershipshould take to confront and turn back the nuclear danger that imperils humanity. The nuclear genie, say the authors, cannot be put back in the bottle. Our most urgent task as a nation today is to successfully manage, contain, and reduce the grave danger of nuclear weaponswhether in the hands of adversaries or friendly states. This book hopes to stimulate active public dialogue on this important subject. Related Free eBooks
