Reviews
"This book is one of the most straightforward and accessible reviews of the continuity of American policy available ... [Malcolmson] has an excellent command of the essential sources, and weaves them effectively into the narrative ... This is a very sound piece of historical analysis ... written in clear, non-technical language for an informed lay audience." Denis Smith, Department of Political Science, University of Western Ontario. "[This is] a book for the educated reading public, the kind of people who have an interest in serious discourse about serious issues but who themselves are not experts or able to spend the time needed to master the esoteric details of military or nuclear science." T.E. Vadney, Department of History, University of Manitoba.

Synopsis
The world is currently undergoing tumultuous political upheaval. Recent events have even been taken to indicate that the Cold War is almost over. But the nuclear threat, informed by a deeply rooted history of nuclear thinking, remains., Most of what is written on nuclear weapons concentrates, understandably, on the here and now: the nuclear threat is a central and continuing fact of modern history . But this is intellectually constricting, both for understanding the nuclear age and for making thoughtful political judgments. It is essential to recognize what we have inherited since 1945 and why people have thought about nuclear weapons in the way they have. In Beyond Nuclear Thinking, Robert Malcolmson analyses the development of nuclear weapons and nuclear strategy since 1945, connecting the legacies of the past with the politics of the 1990s. The nuclear nation states still consider it legitimate to use the threat of nuclear weapons to achieve their own ends. Malcolmson explains why the doctrine of "deterrence" became so central to the political idea of security and reveals the confused nature of recent approaches to the pursuit of international security. Beyond Nuclear Thinking presents a non-technical and broadly based interpretation of important aspects of life and thought in the nuclear age.
