add to cart   close window

Three distinguished authors, John Deutch, a former director of Central Intelligence, Ashton Carter, an ex-Pentagon assistant secretary and Philip Zelikow, a former member of the National Security Council, declare with certainty that danger of weapons of mass destruction being used again the United States and its allies is greater now than at any time since the Cuban missile crisis of 1962. The United States is spending around $7 billion a year defending itself against backpack nuclear bombs, canisters of nerve gas and petri dishes of germ weapons planted in crowded cities by an as-yet known adversary.
