The Spread of Nuclear Weapons cover

Over the past fifteen years, The Spread of Nuclear Weapons has been a staple in International Relations courses because of its brevity and crystal-clear explanations. The new edition, An Enduring Debate, continues the important discussion of nuclear proliferation and the dangers of a nuclear-armed world. With new chapters on the questions surrounding a nuclear North Korea, Iran, and Iraq and the potential for a world free of nuclear weapons, this Third Edition will continue to generate a lively classroom experience.

"This book is a lively and genuine dialogue between two leading authorities on an issue of great importance for both scholarship and public policy." -- Robert Jervis - Columbia University
"This important book clearly and succinctly lays out the opposing views on whether nuclear proliferation makes the world more or less peaceful. . . . I can’t think of a better book to recommend on the ABCs of nuclear proliferation." -- John J. Mearsheimer - University of Chicago
