Nuclear Weapons: The Road to Zero

Nuclear Weapons: The Road to Zero

Nuclear Weapons: The Road to Zero is a 1998 book edited by Joseph Rotblat. Rotblat draws heavily on the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs, and in particular on a comprehensive international study published in 1993 on the need and mechanisms to eliminate nuclear weapons. This monograph is a collection of essays that describe the many intertwined technical, economic, legal and political issues involved. Contrary to the philosophy of nuclear powers—that these weapons are needed for national security—is the "no longer fanciful dream" of a nuclear-weapon-free world. Rotblat suggests that this is "a sound and practical objective, which could be realized in the foreseeable future."[1][2]
