3.0

Intriguing premise, and quite terrifying. The strongest sections involve the inherent flaws in nuclear weapons command and control, as well as the morality of deterence.

The problem is Rosenbaum's prose is irritating, he gets derailed by a lengthy digression on Israel, and the book itself has been outpaced by history.
