Zusammenfassung: | "Here, for the first time, former high level defense analyst Daniel Ellsberg reveals his shocking first-hand account of America's nuclear program in the 1960s. From the remotest air bases in the Pacific Command, where he discovered that the authority to initiate use of nuclear weapons was widely delegated, to the secret plans for general nuclear war under Eisenhower, which, if executed, would cause the near-extinction of humanity, Ellsberg shows that the legacy of this most dangerous arms buildup in the history of civilization...and its proposed renewal under the Trump administration...threatens our very survival. No other insider with high level access has written so candidly of the nuclear strategy of the late Eisenhower and early Kennedy years, and nothing has fundamentally changed since that era. Framed as a memoir...a chronicle of madness in which Ellsberg acknowledges participating...this gripping expose reads like a thriller and offers feasible steps we can take to dismantle the existing "doomsday machine" and avoid nuclear catastrophe, returning Ellsberg to his role as whistleblower. The Doomsday Machine is thus a real-life Dr. Strangelove story and an ultimately hopeful...and powerfully important...book about not just our country, but the future of the world."...Provided by publisher |

spelling | Ellsberg, Daniel 1931-2023 Verfasser (DE-588)123344077 aut The doomsday machine confessions of a nuclear war planner Daniel Ellsberg London ; Oxford ; New York ; New Dehli ; Sydney Bloomsbury 2017 420 Seiten Illustrationen 25 cm txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references and index "Here, for the first time, former high level defense analyst Daniel Ellsberg reveals his shocking first-hand account of America's nuclear program in the 1960s. From the remotest air bases in the Pacific Command, where he discovered that the authority to initiate use of nuclear weapons was widely delegated, to the secret plans for general nuclear war under Eisenhower, which, if executed, would cause the near-extinction of humanity, Ellsberg shows that the legacy of this most dangerous arms buildup in the history of civilization...and its proposed renewal under the Trump administration...threatens our very survival. No other insider with high level access has written so candidly of the nuclear strategy of the late Eisenhower and early Kennedy years, and nothing has fundamentally changed since that era. Framed as a memoir...a chronicle of madness in which Ellsberg acknowledges participating...this gripping expose reads like a thriller and offers feasible steps we can take to dismantle the existing "doomsday machine" and avoid nuclear catastrophe, returning Ellsberg to his role as whistleblower. The Doomsday Machine is thus a real-life Dr. Strangelove story and an ultimately hopeful...and powerfully important...book about not just our country, but the future of the world."...Provided by publisher Ellsberg, Daniel United States Department of Defense Officials and employees Biography Geschichte 1950-1960 gnd rswk-swf Nuclear weapons United States History 20th century Nuclear warfare Government policy United States History 20th century Rand Corporation Biography Nuclear weapons Government policy United States History 20th century Military planning United States History 20th century Nuclear warfare Prevention Cold War Kernenergiepolitik (DE-588)4073359-2 gnd rswk-swf Ost-West-Konflikt (DE-588)4075770-5 gnd rswk-swf Militärpolitik (DE-588)4065004-2 gnd rswk-swf Kernwaffe (DE-588)4003434-3 gnd rswk-swf Atomstrategie (DE-588)4003431-8 gnd rswk-swf Atomkrieg (DE-588)4003420-3 gnd rswk-swf United States Military policy History 20th century USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Ost-West-Konflikt (DE-588)4075770-5 s Kernenergiepolitik (DE-588)4073359-2 s Kernwaffe (DE-588)4003434-3 s Geschichte 1950-1960 z DE-604 Atomkrieg (DE-588)4003420-3 s Atomstrategie (DE-588)4003431-8 s Militärpolitik (DE-588)4065004-2 s Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, EPUB 978-1-4088-8914-5 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, EPUB 978-1-60819-674-6 LoC Fremddatenuebernahme application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=030095252&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis Digitalisierung Deutsches Museum application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=030095252&sequence=000003&line_number=0002&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis |
