The Doomsday Machine: Confessions of a Nuclear War Planner by Daniel Ellsberg

5.0

---

A breath of fresh , clean air to hopefully help scrub away 80 years of misinformation, government obfuscation, general fear mongering and simply out and out lies. Daniel Ellsberg is without a doubt one of the great and most honorable Americans of recent, and maybe any time. This short and concise history of our nuclear experiment with armageddon is not only horrific, frightening and shocking, but also so unsurprising. Everyone should understand how incredibly tenuous our standstill cold war with the Soviets has been and continues to be. Put your politics aside and realize we have all been played.
