"War & Peace In The Nuclear Age" ( John Newhouse )

From the Paper:

"In his book War and Peace in the Nuclear Age, John Newhouse addresses issues raised during the nuclear age extending from the conclusion of World War II, when America inaugurated the nuclear age by dropping the atomic bomb on Japan, through the Cold War with its indirect conflicts between the nuclear superpowers, to the present age when fear of nuclear attack has shifted to a fear of rogue states and terrorists. Much of Newhouse's book seem to center too much on ideas of questionable importance while failing to get at the real shifts in thinking that have taken place in the world as a result of the development of nuclear capability. Newhouse concentrates almost entirely on the fear generated by the idea that nuclear war was possible, and this causes him to blame nearly every conflict on nuclear tensions and to assess every conflict in terms of whether or not it might lead to.."
