DOWNLOAD EBOOKAfter a visit by the wife of the President of the United States, Oregonian Mike Grissom travels to Seoul, Korea in search of the solution to the president's concerns over a possible nuclear attack on an American city. Joining with some new found friends, he flies to Frankfort, Germany, where he uses his authority from the president to borrow a B-52 aircraft from crusty US Air Force General Curtis Osborne. The plane is flown to Tel Aviv, Israel, where it is equipped by Israeli patriots for bombing Iran's Nuclear facilities. The mission is successfully completed, solving the president's problem, and the B-52 is returned to the general in Frankfort after its secret mission.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis volume, Nuclear Disarmament, provides a comprehensive overview of nuclear disarmament and a critical assessment of the way forward. Comprising essays by leading scholars on nuclear disarmament, the book highlights arguments in favour and against a world without nuclear weapons (global zero). In doing so, it proposes a new baseline from which an everchanging nuclear arms control and disarmament agenda can be assessed. Numerous paths to nuclear disarmament have been proposed and scrutinized, and with an increasing number of countries signing off on the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, it is vital to ask which path is the most likely and realistic to succeed. The chapters here also address the rapid pace of technological, political and climatic developments, in relation to nuclear disarmament, and how they add to the complexity of the issue. Taking care to unite the different tribes in the debate, this book provides a community of dissent at a time when academic tribalism all too often prevents genuine debates from taking place. This book will be of interest to students of nuclear proliferation, arms control, security studies and International Relations.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn not too many years into the future, the worst war the world had ever known had broken out! And as it raged across the whole planet, such was its fury, that it seemed to be far more than just another conflict. Because what it came across as, was a kind of fulfilment of divine prophecy, such was the furious nature of this struggle. Everything that was good and evil which defined the human race was bound up into it, and as the evil side rampaged through country after country, the good side was for the time being, led by a lacklustre US President, Jeremiah Abrahams, who found himself and his country in the eye of the storm. But this war was unlike anything that had happened before, as a monstrously evil leader, was determined to succeed where others before him had failed. This meant the good side had to win come what may, but there was a sting in the tail which nobody expected. And A Totally Unnecessary War is how that came about!

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAt the height of the Cultural Revolution a Chinese long-range nuclear missile is fired within the country, and the nuclear warhead it is carrying detonates. A French nuclear device is exploded in Algeria during a coup there. The Soviet empire has collapsed, and shots are fired at a Russian crowd intent on rushing a nuclear weapons-laden plane straining to remove a stash of nuclear weapons to a safer locale. Pakistani civilian governments are routinely pushed aside by a powerful, nuclear-armed military that observers worry might yet itself fall prey to a faction willing to seize a portion of Pakistan's nuclear arsenal. This volume reveals previously unknown details on each case and teases out what is to be learned. This book is ideal not only for policymakers and analysts, but for historians and teachers as well.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this book, 50 experts study the lives of U.S. veterans at work, at home, and in American society as they navigate issues regarding health, gender, public service, substance abuse, and homelessness. The aftermath of modern war includes a population of veterans whose needs last for many decades—far longer than the war itself. This in-depth study looks at life after the military, considering the dual conundrum of a population benefiting from the perks of their duty, yet continuing to deal with trauma resulting from their service, and of former servicemen and servicewomen trying to fit into civilian life—in a system designed to keep them separate. Through two comprehensive volumes, essays shed light on more than 30 topics involving or affecting former servicemen and servicewomen, offering a blueprint for the formal study of U.S. veterans in the future. Contributions from dozens of experts in the field of military science cover such issues as unemployment, homelessness, disability, access to higher education, health, media portrayal, criminal justice, substance abuse, guns, suicide, and politics. Through information gleaned from surveys, interviews, participant observations, secondary analyses, and content analyses, the chapters reveal how veterans are able to successfully contribute to civilian life and show how the American workforce can benefit from their unique set of skills.
