The case against nuclear weapons has been made on many groundsincluding historical, political, and moral. But, Brad Roberts argues, it has not so far been informed by the experience of the United States since the Cold War in trying to adapt deterrence to a changed world, and to create the conditions that would allow further significant changes to [url] nuclear policy and posture. \n\n Drawing on the author's experience in the making and implementation of [url] policy in the Obama administration, this book examines that real world experience and find.
