And one of the triggers for that war would be a nuclear missile inbound toward the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Every 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\u2014where one nuclear missile will beget one in return, and where the choreography of the world\u2019s end requires massive decisions made on seconds\u2019 notice with information that is only as good as the intelligence we have.<\/p>\n<p>Pulitzer Prize finalist Annie Jacobsen\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div id=\"product-summary\" data-hook=\"cr-insights-widget-summary\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none\">\n<div class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-\">\n<h3 data-hook=\"cr-insights-heading-label\" class=\"a-size-base-plus a-color-base a-text-bold\">Customers say<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"a-spacing-small\"><span>Customers find the book well worth reading, sobering, and worthwhile.
