Reviews

<p>Drawing on hundreds of interviews with officials in several nations and previously classified information, Mr. Reiss explains why nine countries -- South Africa, Argentina, Brazil, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, India, Pakistan, and North Korea -- have either capped, curtailed, or rolled back their nuclear weapons programs.--Lawrence J. Korb New York Times


<p> Reiss worked for the National Security Council on nonproliferation issues and thus brings a wealth of inside information to this study. Reiss examines nine countries that have voluntarily constrained, frozen, or eliminated their nuclear weapons programs. These counties are South Africa, Argentina, Brazil, Belorus, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, India, Pakistan, and North Korea... Reiss has added an important contribution to the research of nuclear nonproliferation and shown us that occasionally deproliferation is a viable policy option. -- Kevin J. Lasher, Presidential Studies Quarterly
