Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poems in this volume have been written in the shadow of the bomb. They are poems of survival. They challenge the hubris of those who would rely on nuclear arms for their security. They pose the questions: "How shall we react? How shall we resist? How shall we awaken before it is too late?" This book sounds a warning siren, but it is also a book of hope-hope that people everywhere will awaken to the nuclear dangers that confront us; hope that our shared humanity will prevail; hope that the children of the future will thrive; hope that the bomb and its shadow will be resisted and forever banished from our world; and hope that there will be a new era of love, kindness, compassion and peace.

Book excerpt: Before the Bomb, there were simply 'bombs', lower case. But it was the twentieth century, one hundred years of almost incredible scientific progress, that saw the birth of the Bomb, the human race's most powerful and most destructive discovery. In this magisterial and enthralling account, Gerard DeGroot gives us the life story of the Bomb, from its birth in the turn-of-the-century physics labs of Europe to a childhood in the New Mexico desert of the 1940s, from adolescence and early adulthood in Nagasaki and Bikini, Australia and Siberia to unsettling maturity in test sites and missile silos all over the globe. By turns horrific, awe-inspiring and blackly comic, The Bomb is never less than compelling.

Download or read book “In Case Atom Bombs Fall” written by Michael Scheibach and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-03-10 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the very real possibility of nuclear war looming on the horizon from 1945 to the early 1960s, both federal and local governments took on the responsibility of educating Americans on how to survive the expected blasts, residual fallout, and radiation poisoning. Duck and cover drills, bomb shelters, and evacuation plans became an integral part of every citizen’s daily life. This book provides a sampling of civil defense publications issued by government agencies and organizations during this era. Arranged thematically, the book includes sections covering the impact and power of the atomic bomb, radioactive fallout, women and the home, the importance of being prepared, civil defense in schools, fallout shelters, evacuation plans, and, finally, the call for “peace or ... else.”

Download or read book Atomic Bomb Island written by Don A. Farrell and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atomic Bomb Island tells the story of an elite, top-secret team of sailors, airmen, scientists, technicians, and engineers who came to Tinian in the Marianas in the middle of 1945 to prepare the island for delivery of the atomic bombs then being developed in New Mexico, to finalize the designs of the bombs themselves, and to launch the missions that would unleash hell on Japan. Almost exactly a year before the atomic bombs were dropped, strategically important Tinian was captured by Marines—because it was only 1,500 miles from Japan and its terrain afforded ideal runways from which the new B-29 bombers could pound Japan. In the months that followed, the U.S. turned virtually all of Tinian into a giant airbase, with streets named after those of Manhattan Island—a Marianas city where the bombs could be assembled, the heavily laden B-29s could be launched, and the Manhattan Project scientists could do their last work. Don Farrell has done this story incredible justice for the 75th anniversary. The book is a thoroughly researched, beautifully illustrated mosaic of the final phase of the Manhattan Project, from the Battle of Tinian and the USS Indianapolis to Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Book excerpt: "Unmaking the Bomb investigates the politics of waste, exposure, and cleanup at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation, a former weapons complex in Washington State. Once the heart of American plutonium production, Hanford is now engaged in the nation's largest environmental remediation effort, managing toxic materials that will long outlast their regulatory containers. This book blends ethnographic research with personal narrative to examine cleanup's administrative frames and the stories that exceed them. It describes how the body-at-risk became a waste management tool, and how reckoning with contamination informs the very definitions of health and hazard in the United States"--

Book excerpt: In 2017, North Korea shocked the world twice: by conducting the first test flight of a missile capable of ranging the US, and by exploding the most powerful nuclear device tested anywhere in a quarter century. By the end of the year, Kim Jong Un declared that his nuclear deterrent was complete. Today, North Korea's growing nuclear weapons stockpile and ballistic missile arsenal represent one of the most serious challenges we face to international security. But for all that the global danger is real, Kim's programme means more to him than world glory. Internal regime propaganda calls it the country's 'treasured sword', a cherished element of national strategy and a guarantee of regime survival. Fiercely committed to self-reliance, Kim remains determined to avoid unilateral disarmament. Kim Jong Un and the Bomb explores the history of North Korea's nuclear weapons development, its present capabilities, and the prospects of containing, if not disarming, Kim's arsenal. Ankit Panda argues that there is virtually no chance of total disarmament in the next decade, and that we'll have to learn to live with a nuclear-armed North Korea. His book confronts us head-on with the possible consequences for the US, South Korea and the world.
