This was a great quick read bringing up many valid arguments against reasons for having WMD arsenals. Do they really make a world a safer place? Is MAD enough to keep the world from a nuclear holocaust? What are the chances for a nuclear accident? These questions and more are answered.Only critique is that there could have been arguments added such as the environmental impact, how one detonation could cause a nuclear winter, how one detonation can cause damage to environments for years from radiation fall out and contamination. But other than that I can't think of an argument not covered in this short read.Now that 9 countries and counting have nuclear weapons, is it possible to rid the world of WMD's? Dr. Krishnan proves nuclear weapons do not make our planet safer so maybe his next book will be about realistic solutions and proposals for disarmament. If so I can't waitGreat work, keep it up!
After reading this book it defiantly gave me a deferent view on nuclear weapons. It is filled with important information and facts about the danger of acquiring such weapons. I defiantly recommend reading this for more knowledge on nuclear bombs.
Fantastic read that allows a deeper look into arguments against nuclear weapons. Short read, very informational. If you want a well written book to expand your knowledge this is the book to read.
