This is a very valuable contribution to a greater understanding of the CTBT and the overall nuclear arms control picture." -- Sidney Drell, Stanford University " This book presents the fascinating story of the multilateral negotiations that produced the treaty banning nuclear weapon tests, as told by a participant in those negotiations. This is a treaty that the U.S. Senate has so far failed to approve, and that the administration of President George W. Bush now opposes-- yet most of the rest of the world supports it. Will it ever go into effect?" -- George Bunn, Stanford University |
