Flattering the Passions: Or, the Bomb and Britain's Bid for a World Role (British Academic Press) Book

"After a short appraisal of Britain's nuclear weapons capabilities, the authors examine public attitudes to nuclear weapons, showing why - in the climate of the Cold War - Britain decided to have nuclear weapons and how those weapons became an integral part of the British security structure. They explore issues of technology and safety - in terms of manufacture and of misappropriation - as well as the Whitehall culture of secrecy."--BOOK JACKET. "Flattering the Passions shows the only winners in the British nuclear game (other than the arms industry) to be those politicians, diplomats and generals who feel able to strut with greater self-assurance on the stage of world diplomacy."--BOOK JACKET.Read More
