World Encyclopaedia of Nuclear Arms Control and Non-proliferation is a comprehensive study and analysis of all the treaties and agreements related to the control of nuclear arms and proliferation of weapons. The whole work has been divided into four volumes. The very first volume deals with different types of nuclear test ban treaties and its implications for arms control and disarmament.
The second volume covers nuclear accident and radiological emergency, nuclear safety and physical protection of nuclear material and international atomic energy agency. The next volume deals with the role and structure of the department of disarmament affairs, peaceful nuclear explosions as well as different treaties concerning nuclear arms control.
One of the most effective ways of dealing with nuclear weapons has been the conclusion of various strategic arms limitations/reduction treaties. The fourth and final volume of this encyclopedia includes all the relevant strategic arms reduction treaties.
Essentially, the encyclopedia examines the basic nature of the problems associated with the acquisition of nuclear weapon. The issues of nuclear deterrence and disarmament are the most immediate target of academic debate, discussion and analysis. As a result, there is a deep division among the policy makers, academicians as well as researchers on the possible implications of the acquisition of nuclear weapons by a new state.
The authors have made a sincere effort to include all important developments related to nuclear arms control and non proliferation. This is the most comprehensive collection of data on one of the serious issues confronting the international community since the Second World War. It is hoped that this work world be an indispensable source of knowledge on the issue of Nuclear Arms Control and Non-proliferation.
