Book excerpt: The author, a distinguished physicist and nuclear weapons developer, has participated at almost every stage of the development of nuclear and thermonuclear weapons, their delivery systems, and the efforts at arms control. This book chronicles York's involvement, beginning with his work on the Hiroshima bomb and ending with his service as Jimmy Carter's negotiator at the Comprehensive Test Ban talks in Geneva. His odyssey from Hiroshima to Geneva has been a journey from the conviction that military might and national security were synonymous to the understanding that technology alone will never generate peace and survival.
