{"product_id":"nuclear-war-a-scenario","title":"Nuclear War: A Scenario","description":"The INSTANT New York Times bestseller\n\nInstant Los Angeles Times bestseller\n\nFinalist, Dayton Literary Peace Prize\n\nOne of NPR's Books We Love\n\nOne of Newsweek Staffers' Favorite Books of the Year\n\nShortlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize\n\n“In Nuclear War: A Scenario, Annie Jacobsen gives us a vivid picture of what could happen if our nuclear guardians fail…Terrifying.”—Wall Street Journal\n\nThere is only one scenario other than an asteroid strike that could end the world as we know it in a matter of hours: nuclear war. And one of the triggers for that war would be a nuclear missile inbound toward the United States.\n\nEvery generation, a journalist has looked deep into the heart of the nuclear military establishment: the technologies, the safeguards, the plans, and the risks. These investigations are vital to how we understand the world we really live in—where one nuclear missile will beget one in return, and where the choreography of the world’s end requires massive decisions made on seconds’ notice with information that is only as good as the intelligence we have.\n\nPulitzer Prize finalist Annie Jacobsen’s Nuclear War: A Scenario explores this ticking-clock scenario, based on dozens of exclusive new interviews with military and civilian experts who have built the weapons, have been privy to the response plans, and have been responsible for those decisions should they have needed to be made. Nuclear War: A Scenario examines the handful of minutes after a nuclear missile launch. It is essential reading, and unlike any other book in its depth and urgency.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0593476093\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0593476093.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Jacobsen, Annie\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
