Book Description Soft cover. Condition: Fine. Softcover volume, measuring approximately 6.25" x 9.5", is in fine condition. Binding is sound. Pages are clean and bright. Illustrated with in-text b&w photos, tables, glossary and chronology. xviii/113 pages. This work "describes current efforts to prevent the dangerous misuse or migration of nuclear bomb materials. The book offers a unique, across-the-board critique of the wasy in which the main fissile materials, plutonium and highly enriched uranium, are managed -- in both civil and military programs. Current initiatives to improve fissile-material controls, say the editors, have been disappointing, and much more needs to be done.". Seller Inventory # ABE-1600479669202
