Analyzing the political, economic, and psychological levels of nuclear weapons, Kovel argues that anti-nuclear politics must transcend simple arms control and embrace a broader liberation strategy.
“Against the State of Nuclear Terror should be read by everyone who is not willing to live perpetually on the brink of global suicide/murder and who is looking for a way to arrest our drift toward oblivion.… Kovel’s extraordinary book offers a liberating alternative, a way out, through determined action, of the tangle of lies and terror in which we are so dangerously trapped.”—John E. Mack (1929–2004), Pulitzer Prize winning author and Professor, Department of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School
