The Limits of Safety: Organizations, Accidents, and Nuclear Weapons
ISBN: 9780691021010 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Environmental tragedies such as Chernobyl and the Exxon Valdez remind us that catastrophic accidents are always possible in a world full of hazardous technologies. Yet, the apparently excellent safety record with nuclear weapons has led scholars, policy-makers, and the public alike to believe that nuclear arsenals can serve as a secure deterrent for the foreseeable future.

Despite some attempts at rapprochement in the intervening years, a new standoff between the two countries was precipitated when India accused Lashkar-e-Taiba of being behind the Mumbai attacks late last year. The relentlessness of the confrontations between these two...
