The Selling of Nuclear Technology in America
Stephen Hilgartner, Richard C. Bell, Rory O’Connor
1982 First Printing. Sierra Club Books, San FranciscoGold letters on black cloth spine over red boards in FINE condition. 282pp. *** The way the nuclear threat has been defined to the public aims to defy truth and imagination. How can people even begin to grasp the circumstances of nuclear contamination? “The nuclear debate is the most important debate in history.” Yet, we have been deprived of the conceptual tools to feature this most dire threat to humanity. Essential for cultural literacy, this is one of the most significant books of the last 100 years. Postscript. Footnotes. Index.
