Over dit e-boek

""Atomic Age"" explores how the splitting of the atom not only unleashed unprecedented destructive power but also fundamentally altered international relations and reshaped global politics. The book delves into the complex history of nuclear weapons development, the Cold War arms race, and the lasting effects of atomic energy. It reveals how the threat of mutually assured destruction both stabilized and destabilized the global order, leading to proxy conflicts and constant fear.

The book examines the transformation of warfare, diplomacy, and societal anxieties, presenting a fresh perspective on the long-term societal and cultural impacts of nuclear weapons. Beginning with the scientific breakthroughs and the Manhattan Project, the book transitions into an examination of the Cold War, exploring the nuclear arms race, and concludes with an analysis of post-Cold War nuclear proliferation challenges.

Supported by declassified documents and firsthand accounts, it connects military history with political science and international relations. This multidisciplinary approach offers readers a comprehensive understanding of the atomic age and helps them better understand contemporary debates about nuclear disarmament and arms control.
