Table of ContentsReviewsThe Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament has been at the centre of anti-nuclear protest in the UK for six decades. Martin Shaw has written a stimulating, balanced and comprehensive account of its remarkable history – something we all need to know about if we are to find ways to act in the face of renewed nuclear dangers including explicit nuclear threats, the unravelling of nuclear arms control, and the development of new generations of nuclear weapons. -- Mary Kaldor, Director, Conflict Research Programme, London School of Economics Shaw expertly synthesizes over 75 years of anti-nuclear protests and resistance into one compelling, highly readable, short history. The result is the single best survey of the anti-nuclear movement in Britain, told judiciously by one of its long-term participants and a respected scholar of international relations. -- Christopher R. Hill, University of South Wales Martin Shaw’s excellent book is the first comprehensive study of the multi-faceted and complex movement of opposition to nuclear weapons: it is informed, reflective and reliable, drawing on a range of sources, and judicious in its analysis. It is, moreover, well written and readable. -- Richard Taylor, Emeritus Professorial Fellow, Wolfson College, Cambridge Shaw expertly synthesizes over 75 years of anti-nuclear protests and resistance into one compelling, highly readable, short history.
