From the Inside Flap:
Teach Us To Live is a most compelling book about nuclear weapons, told from the viewpoint of the survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Everyone who cares about the future of the world should have it on their bookshelves. -- Tadatoshi Akiba, Mayor of Hiroshima, Japan As preparations for and threats of nuclear war have become the declared “cornerstone” of US policies, Diana Roose’s book is essential reading for all who seek to understand the world we share with the survivors of the Hiroshima/Nagasaki holocaust. This is a fine resource for people and organizations educating or organizing about nuclear weapons.-- Joseph Gerson, New England Peace Director of the American Friends Service Committee, author of Empire and the Bomb: How the US Uses Nuclear Weapons to Dominate the World.The history and realities of nuclear war are essential parts of global education today. Teach Us To Live fills an important gap in peace studies for the 21st century. It belongs in every school and library.-- Michael Klare, Director of the Five College Program in Peace and World Security Studies, Hampshire College; author of Blood and Oil & Resource Wars.
About the Author:
Diana Wickes Roose, an administrator at Oberlin College and a longtime peace activist, went to Hiroshima and Nagasaki to see the cities that had risen out of the devastation. She personally interviewed the survivors to learn how they, and we, might come to terms with this challenging and traumatic history.
