International nuclear disarmament is at a standstill. A
Nuclear-Weapon-Free World discusses steps that should be taken to
restart the disarmament process, including de-alerting nuclear
weapons, ending production of fissile material, and introducing
policies of 'no first use'. The book includes a history of attempts
to eliminate nuclear weapons, together with a summary of the
arguments for and against; an analysis of whether nuclear weapons
prevented a war in Europe between 1945 and 1991; and a worldwide
survey of public opinion on nuclear weapons.
World-renowned political thinkers and scientists write on nuclear
weapons and war in the twenty-first century. The contributors
include Mikhail Gorbachev, who first declared 'A nuclear war cannot
be won and must not be fought', Robert McNamara, US Defense
Secretary at the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis and Vietnam War;
and Nobel Peace Laureate Joseph Rotblat, the only scientist to
resign from the Manhattan Project, where the world's first nuclear
weapons were produced.
