Description: Although opinions vary on how close anyone came to using nuclear weapons during the Cold War, there is little debate that anxiety about the possibility of nuclear war was one of the major cultural issues of the period. This volume examines the political and cultural effects of nuclear weapons, both among their supporters and their detractors.
