The twilight of the bombs". Glimrende gennemgang af A-våbnenes nyere historie. Saddam Hussein forsøgte faktisk at få lavet en a-bombe, men Kuwait-krigen satte en stopper for den ambition. Sydafrika og Israels bombeprogrammer. Nedrustning, kup i Sovjetunionen mod Gorbatjov. Nordkorea. Bush, Clinton, Bush. Sydafrika og Israel sprængte en lille bombe på en sydafrikansk ø langt væk fra alting og med næsten evigt overskyet vejr, men der var alligevel hul nok i skydækket til at det blev opdaget af en amerikansk Vela satellit. Nedrustningen efter den kolde krig har betydet destruktion af titusindvis af bomber og bombemateriale. Det er et godt gæt at det ikke er så svært at lave bomber, hvis man har højt beriget uran - HEU. Men ellers er det ret svært. Nogenlunde bog, der er mere politisk beskrivende end teknisk. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

This culminating volume in Richard Rhodes's monumental and prizewinning history of nuclear weapons offers the first comprehensive narrative of the challenges faced in a post-Cold War age from the second war in Iraq to the emerging threat of nuclear terrorism, from the changing roles of the five original nuclear powers to our complicated relationships with North Korea and South Asia. Finally, Rhodes imagines what a post-nuclear world might look like, suggesting what might make it possible. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
