In the wake of recent nuclear testing by India and Pakistan mesa timely and frightening analysis of how the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction in Asia has started a revolution in geopolitics and dramatically upset the balance of power between the East and West.

Bracken’s arguments are provocative and compelling, tapping into a deep cultural fear that has lain largely dormant since the end of the Cold War.
