About This Book

This is the culminating volume in Richard Rhode's monumental and prize-winning history of nuclear weapons, offering the first comprehensive narrative of the challenges faced in a post-Cold War age. It makes clear how the five original nuclear powers - Russia, Great Britain, France, China and the US - have struggled with new realities. It explores how the present day represents a nuclear turning point and what hope exists for the future. Rhodes assesses the emerging threat of nuclear terrorism and offers advice on how the West's complicated relationships with North Korea and South Asia should evolve. With bibliography and index.
