This book makes a passionate argument that the only sane and rational number of nuclear weapons is zero. With penetrating insight, the author dispels the myth that nuclear deterrence provides protection to a country and argues there exists a human responsibility to eliminate nuclear weapons before they eliminate us. Archbishop Desmond Tutu writes, "This book makes a clear and persuasive case for why we must move urgently and globally to zero nuclear weapons. It should be required reading for all citizens of Earth."
