Trust in Nuclear Disarmament Verification
ISBN: 9783319409870 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych.

Yet this view is fundamentally flawed since the technical impossibility of 100 per cent verification opens the door to a host of complex issues and questions regarding the process and its outcomes. Central among these is the fact that those involved in any verification inspection process must inevitably conduct their...
