The Doomsday Machine
Confessions of a Nuclear War Planner
Daniel Ellsberg
This exposé, written by legendary Pentagon Papers whistle-blower Daniel Ellsberg, reveals America's Top Secret seventy-year nuclear policy that continues to endanger our very survival. Ellsberg provides a firsthand account of the nuclear program in the 1960s, showing that the proposed renewal under the Trump administration and the legacy of this dangerous arms buildup threatens humanity. The book reads like a thriller and offers feasible steps we can take to dismantle the existing "doomsday machine" and avoid nuclear catastrophe. This real-life Dr. Strangelove story is ultimately hopeful and powerfully important for the future of the world.

You think the US gov't had a safe, thoughtful, well-informed, and coherent nuclear strategy during the Cold War? So did I, until I read this. The most fascinating and horrifying book on recent history I've ever read. – источник
