This collection offers a fresh interpretation of the Cold War as an
imaginary war, a conflict that had imaginations of nuclear
devastation as one of its main battlegrounds. The book includes
survey chapters and case studies on Western Europe, the USSR, Japan
and the USA. Looking at various strands of intellectual debate and
at different media, from documentary film to fiction, the chapters
demonstrate the difficulties to make the unthinkable and
unimaginable - nuclear apocalypse - imaginable. The book will be
required reading for everyone who wants to understand the cultural
dynamics of the Cold War through the angle of its core ingredient,
nuclear weapons. -- .
