Description:
From the best-selling author of Chernobyl comes a sweeping history of the geopolitics behind the nuclear arms race, from the first atomic bomb to today



On 16 July 1945, the Nuclear Age began with the explosion of the first atomic bomb and the words of J. Robert Oppenheimer- 'Now I am become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds.'

While the threat of mutually assured destruction kept a lid on a simmering and tense geopolitical landscape, events like the Chernobyl disaster and near-misses like the Cuban Missile Crisis showed that total destruction was only ever one malfunction, mistake, or miscommunication away. Now, as governments re-arm their nuclear arsenals, treaties designed to limit the acquisition and use of nuclear weapons fall away, and nuclear weapons come increasingly within reach of non-state actors, we are on the brink of a renaissance of the nuclear industry.

In The Nuclear Age, acclaimed historian Serhii Plokhy paints an intricate picture of a world governed by fear. From the first artificial splitting of the atom in 1917 and the race to create the first atomic bomb in World War II, through the fraught arms race of the Cold War, to the imperialism, neo-colonial motivation and wars being waged today, the threat posed by nuclear weapons is as pertinent as ever.




As he examines the motivations of key players, Plokhy confronts the crucial question of our age- what can we learn from the first nuclear arms race that can help us to stop the new one?

Wow, Dove really outdid themselves. Great product.
Scent: Fragranced, Size: 30.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Wow, what a difference what a difference Amazon basic body wash is what I was using before to be honest and it used to be very good. I don’t know if they changed the formula but that formula now it doesn’t lather up. You have to use half the bottle to get it to lather up this one lathers up amazingly well and you only need a few pushes. As a guy, I love it. We have dry skin too, just like anybody else so between moisturizer and lather , the scent the skin protection the skin softeners the whole thing it’s great. And you get a lot of of it too, which is awesome so overall at least to me a great value for the money

Best skin care product ever tried
I am 74 years old and have been using this product for 23 days. I could see a difference the first time using it. My face was a lot smoother and hydrated. I apply it after cleansing my face morning and night followed by my regular moisturizer. It has diminished wrinkles and makes my face glow. It also blends well with liquid foundation. I have been getting compliments but have not told anyone what I am using yet. It also helps to smooth the tops of my hands and arms. I have tried many skin care products and never gotten results like this.

Amazing Serum
This serum is one of the best I’ve ever used, & I’ve tried many. It’s non-greasy, light, absorbs into skin well,, & has really improved the texture of my skin. I am amazed at how well it works on fine lines, deep wrinkles ,& large pores. Wish I had taken a before & after photo. Highly recommended, & I have mature skin.
