Richard Lugar -- of this discussion of preventing nuclear terrorism and nuclear proliferation by a leading defense policy historian, Graham Allison. Sen. Lugar, a six-term Indiana Republican, was a top Senate foreign affairs leader with a particular interest in stifling nuclear proliferation. He spearheaded key efforts to limit the spread of nuclear weapons and during his brief bid of the Republican presidential nomination in 1996 highlighted nuclear proliferation as his top issue. Sen. Lugar is one of three "pioneers of prevention" to whom Allison dedicates this volume. This copy is inscribed by Graham Allison to Sen. Lugar on the dedication page "To Dick, great inspiration to me personally and champion of our cause." 249 pages. Has several light creases on the spine. Includes a packet of materials housed with the book that include; promotional flyers, a New York Times book review with underlined passages, op-ed pieces by Allison, a letter to the editor by Allison in which he notes Lugar giving a "passing grade" to the George W. Bush administration on proliferation while noting that Bush's 2004 opponent Sen. John Kerry has a better program, and a seven-page John Kerry campaign press release featuring the transcription of a major Kerry speech on national security.

Times Books 9-Aug-04 First Edition, Ex-Library Hardcover Very Good First Edition, Ex-Library book with slight wear on dustjacket, a few library stamps, no markings in text. From Publishers Weekly: A founding dean of Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government, Allison applies a long, distinguished career in government and academia to this sobering--indeed frightening--presentation of U.S. vulnerability to a terrorist nuclear attack. While he begins by asserting such an attack is preventable, the balance of his text is anything but reassuring. Allison begins by describing the broad spectrum of groups who could intend a nuclear strike against the U.S. They range from an al-Qaeda with its own Manhattan Project to small and determined doomsday cults. Their tools can include a broad spectrum of weapons, either stolen or homemade from raw materials increasingly available worldwide. Once terrorists acquire a nuclear bomb, Allison argues, its delivery to an American target may be almost impossible to stop under current security measures. The Bush administration, correct in waging war against nuclear terrorism, has not, he says, yet developed a comprehensive counter strategy. Arguing that the only way to eliminate nuclear terrorism's threat is to lock down the weapons at the source, Allison recommends nothing less than a new international order based on no insecure nuclear material, no new facilities for processing uranium or enriching plutonium and no new nuclear states. Those ...
