The all-destructive force - A book about the impending end of the world In a time when political heavyweights play with fire like little children, the world is on the brink of a new atomic arms race, even of atomic war. Despite Chernobyl and Fukushima, the peaceful use of atomic energy is accepted in many countries around the world; despite Hiroshima and Nagasaki, world leaders are threatening atomic total annihilation. With its equally fascinating and terrifying photographs of atomic tests from the mid-20th century, this annotated, illustrated book reminds its readers of the all-destructive nuclear force which has faded from some people's memories, and the risk that it poses. Even today, the world's atomic stockpile is enough to irretrievably eradicate all the life created by nature over millions of years, not just once but multiple times. This book is a call not to forget, and a warning that we should abandon the path that threatens to lead our world into oblivion. Skryť popis
