Fatal Choice : Nuclear Weapons and the Illusion of Missile Defense, Paperback Book

Fatal Choice : Nuclear Weapons and the Illusion of Missile Defense Paperback

Paperback

Description

A career diplomat argues that a second and much more threatening nuclear arms race is on the immediate horizon and that despite recent world government actions, there remain positive actions to be taken.

We continue to face a choice with respect to nuclear weapons either to move safely toward their elimination or to remain their victim.

A forty-year effort to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons is breaking down, and the likely acquisition of these weapons by terrorist groups is growing.

In Fatal Choice , Richard Butler, a well-known and respected voice on the subject of nuclear weapons, argues that we are poised on the verge of a second and much more threatening nuclear arms race than the one experienced throughout the Cold War.

This threat is clearly reflected in nuclear weapons development by India, Pakistan, Iraq, and North Korea.

The revival by the Bush administration of missile defense will not deal with the problem but worsen it.

Butler outlines the steps that can be taken to give effect to the right choice on nuclear weapons.
