Bertrand Russell

Opis

This title presents Bertrand Russell's keen insights into the threat of nuclear conflict, and his argument that the only way to end this threat is to end war itself. Written at the height of the Cold War, this book offers an understanding of Russell's involvement in the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament and his passionate campaigning for peace. It remains significant in the modern nuclear world, and is should be useful for those interested in Russell and postwar history.
