Item description from seller

A first impression of the true first edition - published by Polygon Books, Edinburgh as a paperback original. A landscape format illustrated book. ***Very good in illustrated card covers, with a flat spine, and priced by the publisher at £1.95 on the back cover. The covers are clean with just some rubbing and a few small marks commensurate with age and handling, and slight creasing to the back cover. No serious creases or tears. Internally near fine with no inscriptions, but with this interesting ownership sticker on the front inside cover 'Keith Ollett, Crowborough Peace Campaign Library' (please see scans). Internal pages clean throughout. No creases. No tears. ***48 pages including a page of References and an Appendix at the back of the book. 235mm x 170mm. ***Contents: Introduction, Hiroshima, the turning point, Civilian and Military Casualties, Diminishing returns in absurdity, Evolution of Weapons, Evolution of Strategy, Medical Effects of Nuclear War, The Wind of Change, Target London, Lying in State, European Security, Perceptions and Morality, References, Appendix. ***'Many people still adhere to the belief that nuclear war can only be prevented by continuing to deploy newer and more sophisticated weapons. We, and others, believe this is a tragic misconception of the real nature of the arms race.' (Quote taken from the Introduction) ***A first impression of the true first edition of this book - a paperback original, published during the height of the Cold War. Very uncommon. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. …
