520    "Every generation, a journalist has looked deep into the 
       heart of the nuclear military establishment: the 
       technologies, the safeguards, the plans, and the risks. 
       These projects are vital to how we understand the world we
       really live in: where one nuclear missile begets one in 
       return; where the choreography of the world's end requires
       massive decisions made on seconds-notice, with information
       that is only as good as the intelligence we have. Annie 
       Jacobsen's Nuclear War: A Scenario explores this ticking 
       clock scenario, based on dozens of new interviews with 
       military and civilian experts who have built the weapons; 
       created the response plans; and been responsible for those
       decisions should they need to have been made. Nuclear War:
       A Scenario is unlike any other book in its depth and 
       urgency"--|cProvided by publisher.
