ABOUT THE BOOK

Nuclear and other “weapons of mass destruction” pose a threat to work security, whether by their proliferation and possible use between states or by terrorist acquisition. However, prior arms control agreements have moved humanity within striking distance of global prohibition.

This illuminating work discusses principles for a treaty (convention) banning nuclear weapons and extending worldwide today’s bans on chemical and biological weapons.
