Praise for "Elements of a Nuclear Disarmament Treaty"
"For decades, proponents of maintaining large nuclear arsenals have rebuffed reductions with claims that a disarmament treaty could never be achieved, verified, or enforced. The experts assembled in "Elements of a Nuclear Disarmament Treaty" destroy these fact-free assertions with a full-spectrum analysis of each political and technical obstacle to the security of a world without nuclear weapons and sober suggestions for how to overcome them. It is a how-to book you cannot do without."
Joe Cirincione
President, Ploughshares Fund
"A sober and thoughful look at the many challenges involved in eliminating nuclear weapons and how those challenges might be overcome over the next 25-35 years. Skeptics of the feasibility (or even the desirability) of nuclear disarmament may not be fully convinced, but like all national security analysts and policy makers they will benefit from careful study of this important new book."
Ambassador Linton Brooks
Former Chief START negotiator
