In the more than sixty years since the advent of nuclear weapons, there has been little meaningful progress toward nuclear disarmament. Some countries have nuclear weapons, while other states are forbidden to acquire them, a status quo that lacks rational basis and cannot be sustained.

But decisions about nuclear weapons are not made by the public, but by small groups of political elites. Consequ...
Tony Blair and George Bush may have won the war in Iraq, but they are losing the peace at home. How did Blair come to support the US-led invasion of Iraq? Why did he risk taking Britain into a conflict which so imperilled his premiership? Was he justified in doing so? These are just some of the questions which David Coates and Joel Krieger seek to answer in Blair’s War – the most authoritative and complete record of the conflict to date.

The poems in this volume have been written in the shadow of the bomb. They are poems of survival. They challenge the hubris of those who would rely on nuclear arms for their security. They pose the questions: "How shall we react? How shall we resist? How shall we awaken before it is too late?" This book sounds a warning siren, but it is also a book of hope-hope that people everywhere will awaken to the nuclear dangers that confront us; hope that our shared humanity will prevail; hope that the children of the future will thrive; hope that the bomb and its shadow will be resisted and forever banished from our world; and hope that there will be a new era of love, kindness, compassion and peace.
