About the book
Harvard scholar Graham Allison, an expert on nuclear weapons and national security, makes two arguments about the threat of a terrorist group detonating a nuclear device in an American city. The first is that, if current policy continues, such an attack is inevitable. Allison sets out who is likely to seek a bomb, what material is within reach, where it could be obtained, when a device could be ready and how it might be delivered. The second is that nuclear terrorism can be prevented, and he outlines a strategy to all but eliminate it, arguing that the deterrence used against the Soviet Union no longer fits a world where nuclear material can be stolen or sold.
Warren Buffett used his 2004 shareholder letter to call it required reading for anyone worried about the country's safety.
