In the million years during which man has lived on this planet he must have survived many hazards. Can he hope to survive a nuclear war Here lies the most agonizing question of our era. Refuting the theory that scientists have been the willing tools of governments Russell exposes the hypocrisy of official attitudes to nuclear weapons. The one hope for man he proclaims is to be found in world government. He maps out a reasoned scheme in his this book and details the practical steps we can take towards it today. This moving pronouncement - in its admiration of man's past achievements in the despair engendered by his present plight in its unquenchable concern for those who follow - is no less than Russell's living testament to mankind.
