Mass-market paperback. Reprint. Later printing. xiii, [1], 272 p. Illustrations. Glossary. From Wikipedia: "The anti-nuclear movement is a social movement that opposes various nuclear technologies. Some direct action groups, environmental groups, and professional organisations have identified themselves with the movement at the local, national, and international level. Major anti-nuclear groups include Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, Friends of the Earth, Greenpeace, International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War, and the Nuclear Information and Resource Service. The initial objective of the movement was nuclear disarmament, though some of the focus has shifted to include opposition to the use of nuclear power. There have been many large anti-nuclear demonstrations and protests. A protest against nuclear power occurred in July 1977 in Bilbao, Spain, with up to 200, 000 people in attendance. Following the Three Mile Island accident in 1979, an anti-nuclear protest was held in New York City, involving 200, 000 people. In 1981, Germany's largest anti-nuclear power demonstration took place to protest against the Brokdorf Nuclear Power Plant west of Hamburg; some 100, 000 people came face to face with 10, 000 police officers. The largest anti-nuclear protest was held on June 12, 1982, when one million people demonstrated in New York City against nuclear weapons. A 1983 nuclear weapons protest in West Berlin had about 600, 000 participants. In May 1986, following the Chernobyl disaster, an estimated 150, 000 to 200, 000 people marched in Rome to protest against the Italian nuclear program." Good. Signed by previous owner.

Mutually Assured Destruction. There's a whole lot to unpack, thanks to current events. Here's a primer to help you navigate nuclear weapons systems, nuclear war strategy, the destructive power of nuclear weapons, and the impact of radiation on the human bodyeverything you need to know now that Cold War 2.0 is in full swing. It's been nearly 30 years since the first Cold War ended, and about that long since the average person thought about Nuclear War. That all ended several days ago when Russia invaded Ukraine, and Vladimir Putin recklessly began rattling his nuclear saber, threatening a nuclear response if NATO intervenes. As should be expected, American, British, and French leaders and military chiefs of staff were calm and deliberately stated they were not raising the readiness of their nuclear forces and were not taking Putin's threat seriously. When questioned by a reporter if he was worried about Putin's threat, President Biden stated, "NO!" Why was the President so certain in his statement? Because 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and year after year, a significant portion of our US nuclear triad of land-based Minuteman III ballistic missiles, B2 and B52 bombers, and Ohio class ballistic missile submarines are on alert, ready to execute all-out thermonuclear war within minutes. The same is true of our British and French nuclear allies. We don't have to threaten Mr. Putin with our nuclear sword. It is always at the ready. We know this, and Vladimir Putin knows this. Let's put rationality aside for a moment and examine what would happen if Mr. Putin is deranged enough to actually "turn" the key and start World War III. What would happen? How would you be affected? Before I answer the question "Nuclear war, what's in it for me?" let's begin with an update on the world's forces and US and Russian nuclear forces in particular. Then we'll turn to nuclear warfighting strategy, the destructive effects of a nuclear detonation, and the impact of fallout and radiation on the human body. We'll wrap up with a nuclear war scenario and its aftermath. Good. Stamp of previous owner on bottom edge.
