The irradiated western hero and other insanity from the nuclear age
German, Rudolph Duke, 2012Product details
A balance sheet of horror. Of lost hydrogen bombs, vanished uranium and uncontrollable technologies It is not only since Fukushima that mankind has known that nuclear technology will never be completely controllable. But few people are aware of the enormous quantities of nuclear material that are available in the world, how negligently it has been handled in some cases and still is in some cases, and what tangible dangers it poses. If in the beginning it was ignorance that led people and governments to make whole regions uninhabitable (Bikini, Soviet test sites, Nevada), to carry out or plan bizarre experiments (the creation of artificial weather glow or the blowing up of a second Panama Canal by means of 300 atomic bombs) or to build ever larger, more dangerous and more insane weapons (atomic bomb, hydrogen bomb, cobalt bomb), today the danger lies in the fact that there are no more nuclear weapons.
