Trade Paperback. Etat : Very Good. David Shaw (illustrateur). Light Creasing on Front Cover; Front, Rear Covers, Spine Lightly Chipped; Edges Lightly Soiled; Slight Yellowing Due to Age. SUB-TITLE: This Is the Way the World Will End Unless . . . ALSO KNOWN AS: The sections by Harold Freeman and Bernard T. Feld were originally published in the United States as This Is the Way the World Will End, This Is the Way You Will End, Unless, copyright 1982, by Schenkman Publishing Company, Inc. They have been amended and updated. SYNOPSIS: If you read no other book this year, read this one - before it is too late. This book will shock you, terrify you, anger you, goad you to action. You may have thought you've heard it all before, but you haven't. Do you really know what a nuclear attack would mean? The lucky ones, millions of them, will be vaporized at the moment of explosion. Millions upon millions more will die more slowly, and infinitely more painfully - from radiation poisoning, horrible burns, virulent diseases, contaminated food and water (or none at all). If any survive the attack and its aftermath, radiation will still kill them in the end, with cancer, and they will have bequeathed the seeds of horrible mutations and diseases to their children. There is no escape. There are no non-combatants in a nuclear war. Shelters will not save you. Distance from strategic or population centres will not help you avoid the radioactive cloud. To talk of a survivable nuclear war is lunacy. And yet the major powers, already possessed of arsenals sufficient to blow up the world twenty times over, continue their insane and suicidal stockpiling of mor and bigger weapons, while they talk less and less of disarmament and not at all of peace. Even more frightening is the very real possibility that the nuclear threat will be fulfilled by accident, or by some madman, or by a terrorist group. The options are clear: the proliferation of nuclear weaponry must be stopped or the earth will be destroyed and humanity will die. This book will force on your imagination the reality of the problem; but all is not lost - not yet - and this book will also offer you some suggestions for the solution. Act on these suggestions now. If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. This book has been written out of a deep sense of responsibility and commitment. Harold Freeman is a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and has acted as consultant to the U.S. Secretary of Defense and other U.S. government departments; for many years he has been watching the escalation of the nuclear arms race with a feeling of deep disquiet that has grown to one of desperate urgency. Bernard Feld is a distinguished nuclear physicist and a long-time worker in the struggle to curb nuclear weaponry. T. James Stark founded Operation Dismantle in Ottawa in 1977 and has worked full-time since then for the cause of nuclear disarmament. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. N° de réf. du vendeur 001318
