Description
Book SynopsisA radical geography of nuclear warfare.
Trade Review'What's louder than an atom bomb? The deafening silence that surrounds the apathy our contemporary culture has for the prospect of nuclear annihilation. 'Disarming Doomsday' awakens our sensibilities to the symbolic and actual violence of nuclear war.'
-- Simon Springer, author of 'The Anarchist Roots of Geography'
'A true gem - an unparalleled glimpse into the lives of global communities still deeply impacted by atomic technologies. Wonderful for teaching or developing a grounded understanding of this immense history'
-- Stephanie A. Malin author of 'The Price of Nuclear Power: Uranium Communities and Environmental Justice'
'An informed and insightful account of contemporary nuclear issues which proposes a geographically-centred analysis of the causes and consequences of nuclear warfare'
-- Rachel Woodward, author of 'Military Geographies'
