Beschreibung

Nuclear Projects examines the development and impact of nuclear weapons, revealing how the pursuit of this immense power reshaped the 20th century and continues to influence global politics. The book explores the scientific breakthroughs, intense political pressures, and evolving military strategies that fueled the nuclear arms race. It highlights how the Manhattan Project, a massive undertaking during World War II, not only produced the first atomic bombs but also presented profound ethical dilemmas for the scientists involved. The text argues that nuclear weapons represent a pivotal turning point in human history, fundamentally altering warfare and international diplomacy.

 
The book begins by detailing the scientific foundations of nuclear weapons, moving through the Manhattan Project, and analyzing the controversial decisions to use atomic bombs. Subsequent chapters dissect the Cold War arms race, the doctrine of Mutually Assured Destruction, and various attempts at arms control. Nuclear Projects concludes by considering contemporary challenges like nuclear proliferation and terrorism. The book offers a balanced perspective, drawing on declassified documents, scientific reports, and memoirs to provide a holistic understanding of the nuclear phenomenon and its continuing impact.

    On November 4, 1979, "student" supporters of the Ayatollah seized the U.S. Embassy with over sixty hostages. Although the Cold War was in full swing, the Iran hostage crisis was a watershed for the United States. 
     
     
     
    Detachment A had been established in Berlin early in the Cold War to harass and delay any Soviet military advance west. This Special unit trained relentlessly for every aspect of unconventional warfare, and was later assigned a second mission of counterterrorism. 
     
     
     
    The plan for Operation Eagle Claw, as it became known, was extremely complex. The first stage was intelligence gathering—no mean feat as most of the CIA's capabilities in the country had been eliminated. With operatives trained in intelligence work, fluent in many languages, and adept at blending in, Det A took on the advanced recon of the targets. Then, when Delta Force admitted that it could only manage the assault of the Embassy, Det A volunteered to rescue the three Americans at the Foreign Ministry. 
     
     
     
    Veteran and historian James Stejskal details Det A's unique and integral role in Operation Eagle Claw, based upon firsthand accounts of the operatives involved.
