In this book, Sidney D. Drell and James E. Goodby-each with more than twenty years' experience in national security issues both in public and private capacities-review the main policy issues surrounding nonproliferation of nuclear weapons. They address the specific actions that the community of nations-with American leadership-should take to confront and turn back the nuclear danger that imperils humanity. The nuclear genie, say the authors, cannot be put back in the bottle. Our most urgent task as a nation today is to successfully manage, contain, and reduce the grave danger of nuclear weapons-whether in the hands of adversaries or friendly states. This book hopes to stimulate active public dialogue on this important subject. 606 $aNuclear disarmament 606 $aNuclear nonproliferation 606 $aNuclear terrorism 606 $aNuclear weapons 606 $aWorld politics$y21st century 615 0$aNuclear disarmament. 615 0$aNuclear nonproliferation. 615 0$aNuclear terrorism. 615 0$aNuclear weapons. 615 0$aWorld politics 676 $a327.1/747 700 $aDrell$b Sidney D$g(Sidney David),$f1926-2016.$040439 701 $aGoodby$b James E$0870484 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966675803321 996 $aThe gravest danger$94360110 997 $aUNINA
