Planning Armageddon provides the first detailed account of
Britain's Command, Control, Intelligence and Communications
infrastructure. A central theme of the book is the British-American
atomic relationship and its implications for NATO strategy. Based
on the recollections of officials and military officers in both
Britain and the United States and employing recently declassified
government documents, Planning Armageddon presents a systematic
analysis of British involvement in nuclear planning from Hiroshima
to the development of Polaris. At the same time, it provides an
important examination of the operational weaknesses of the British
nuclear deterrent and the potential hazards presented by
unwarranted secrecy.
