The core principle underlying the strategy of nonproliferation -
acceptance of a two tier international nuclear order - has become
unsustainable. Policy makers and those in the academic world need
to turn their attention to exploring new proliferation management
strategies premised first and foremost on recognizing that nuclear
weapons are here to stay and that determined proliferators can not
be stopped from going nuclear. Andrew O'Neil develops this argument
in relation to the role of nuclear weapons in Northeast Asia, the
engine house of world economic growth. To what extent does the
failing strategy of nonproliferation pose serious challenges for
Northeast Asia's security environment? Are there alternative
strategies for managing nuclear weapons in the region? Should the
presence of nuclear weapons in Northeast Asia necessarily be seen
in exclusively negative terms, as many experts believe?

Robbers Roost was a hideout for outlaws and hunted men long before
Butch Cassidy found it in 1884. The impenetrable wastes and wilds
of this high desert country in southeastern Utah, cut through by
canyons along the Green and Colorado rivers and bounded on the west
by the Dirty Devil, discouraged lawmen from pursuit. Growing up on
a ranch that included Robbers Roost, Pearl Baker heard many of the
legends about-and talked to many who remembered-the notorious Wild
Bunch. In the 1890s they spread over Utah, Wyoming, Montana,
Colorado, and Arizona rustling cattle, stealing horses, robbing
banks and trains, and often taking cover at Robbers Roost. Butch
Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Flat Nose George and the Curry boys,
Elzy Lay, Gunplay Maxwell, the McCarty boys, Peep O'Day, Silver
Tip, Blue John, and Indian Ed Newcomb-they all come to rip-roaring
life while courting death in The Wild Bunch at Robbers Roost. In
his introduction to the Bison Books edition, Floyd A. O'Neil,
director of the American West Center at the University of Utah,
discusses landscape, the law and the Wild Bunch, and Pearl Baker's
lifelong preparation for this lively book. Purchase the audio
edition.
Stanley Lyman, who was the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA)
superintendent at the Pine Ridge Reservation in 1973, gives an
inside view of what happened when the American Indian Movement
(AIM) activists occupied the village of Wounded Knee. Close to the
action, he recorded it with unusual candor, directing his sorrow,
frustration, and occasional anger to all parties involved--the
Tribal Council, the Justice Department, the BIA, FBI, and AIM. His
account of the besiegers and besieged reveals a well-meaning and
intelligent man forced by dramatic events to reevaluate some
long-cherished assumptions. It deserves to be read and studied in
any attempt to understand fully Wounded Knee II.
