This book contains interviews conducted over more than a decade with experts of all descriptions — including Daniel Ellsberg, Seymour Hersh, Gar Alperovitz, Hans Kristensen, Gordon Prather, Joe Cirincione and more — about the threat of nuclear war between major and minor powers, the nuclear arms-industrial complex, the nuclear programs and weapons of the so-called "rogue states" of Iraq, Iran, Syria, Israel and North Korea, the bitter truths and eternal lessons of America's nuclear bombing of Japan in World War II and the dedicated activists working to abolish the bomb for all time.
