This second volume identifies and evaluates Cold War residual
consequences, especially those related to nuclear weapons and their
evolution. It provides a knowledgeable assessment of current risks
and future potential of peaceful nuclear technology and inherited
nuclear weapons. In this revised edition, a comparative assessment
has been included of the nuclear accidents at Fukushima (Japan),
Chernobyl, and Three Mile Island reactors. The respective roles of
the three volumes in "Nuclear Insights" Volume 1 is a insider
history of nuclear weapons development during the Cold War, and
Volume 3 is a technically informed perspective about nuclear
reductions and arms control. Thus, Volume 2 reports on and examines
current nuclear technology, peaceful applications, and
proliferation risks. All three volumes are unique, having
originated with a written collaboration by four nuclear scientists
and engineers, from both sides of the Cold War Iron Curtain, all of
whom had hands-on experience with nuclear weapons and nuclear
reactors.
