This is one of a series which aims to inform teenagers about some of the most controversial issues of today. This book aims to illustrate the arguments surrounding nuclear weapons by looking at the first nuclear weapons, examining the "nuclear winter" theory and the use of civil defence. The following chapters consider the issue of deterrence and ask whether nuclear weapons are, in fact, keeping the peace; the proliferation of nuclear weapons and how it can be stopped; the question of whether nuclear weapons are morally right or wrong; the effectiveness of arms control talks, and the problems raised or solved by "star wars" defence systems.

hardcover. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
