Krátky popis
The Sunday Times bestselling edge-of-your-seat exploration of what
would happen in the event of nuclear war, perfect for readers of
American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert
Oppenheimer. Nuclear war begins with a blip on a radar screen.This
is a minute-by-minute account of what comes next. It has to be read
to be believed. 'A stomach-clenching, multi-perspective,
ticking-clock, geopolitical thriller' Forbes'Tells a terrifying
story in a devastatingly straightforward way' Guardian'These are
scenes straight out of Dr Strangelove' TelegraphThere is only one
scenario other than an asteroid strike that could end the world as
we know it in a matter of hours: nuclear war.Until now, no one
outside official circles has known exactly what would happen if a
rogue state launched a nuclear missile at the Pentagon. Second by
second and minute by minute, these are the real-life protocols that
choreograph the end of civilization. Decisions that affect hundreds
of millions of lives need to be made within six minutes, based on
partial information, in the knowledge that once launched, nothing
is capable of halting the destruction.Based on dozens of new
interviews with military and civilian experts who have built the
weapons, been privy to the response plans, and taken responsibility
for crucial decisions, this is the only account of what a nuclear
exchange would look like. Nuclear War is at once a compulsive
non-fiction thriller and a powerful argument that we must rid
ourselves of these world-ending weapons for ever. 'This terrifying
book is a must-read for every world leader' Mother Jones'At once
methodical and vivid' The Economist'Dangerously plausible – and it
reads like a thriller' Sunday Times* A New York Times bestseller
(March 2024) and a Sunday Times bestseller (April 2024).Shortlisted
for the Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction 2024, the UK's
premier annual prize for non-fiction books.
