Written by a clinical psychologist who works with children, and an educational journalist, this very special book is based on research from hundreds of interviews, and includes actual dialogues-those that help and those that don't. Practical and positive, it deals with feelings as well as facts, and provides realistic guidelines for adult/child discussions that can be open, honest and, most of all, hopeful. Book jacket.

The Nuclear Education Project (NEP), a group of five women concerned about parenting in a nuclear age, developed this guide to help parents and others develop a sense of hope and promote a greater involvement in the democratic political process. Chapter I, "The Heart of the Matter," presents sections on answering possible questions children might ask and dealing with despair. Suggestions for talking with children about nuclear war are presented in subsections focusing on specific fears of children in varying age groups. Chapter II, "Nuclear Realities," presents subsections on nuclear power and nuclear weapons. The section on nuclear power focuses on the impact nuclear power has on people's lives and the environment, while briefly looking at the basic physics and mechanics of nuclear power, the fuel cycle, waste problems, and the politics of the nuclear industry. Information on nuclear weapons includes the history of the nuclear arms race, the use of nuclear weapons in World War II, the dimensions of possible destruction, the short- and long-term impact of the use of such weapons, and the cost of and politics behind specific weapons systems. Alternatives presented in chapter III involve changing lifestyles and changing technology, while Chapter IV presents suggestions for action. Anecdotes of 11 children concerned about the future are presented in the final chapter. The document concludes with an annotated bibliography of over 130 fiction and nonfiction books for children and adults and a list of organizations concerned with nuclear issues. (LH)

Written by world-renowned scientists, this volume portrays the possible direct and indirect devastation of human health from a nuclear attack. The most comprehensive work yet produced on this subject, The Medical Implications of Nuclear War includes an overview of the potential environmental and physical effects of nuclear bombardment, describes the problems of choosing who among the injured would get the scarce medical care available, addresses the nuclear arms race from a psychosocial perspective, and reviews the medical needs--in contrast to the medical resources likely to be available--after a nuclear attack. "It should serve as the definitive statement on the consequences of nuclear war."--Arms Control Today

A powerful post-nuclear holocaust novel described by the author as, 'my cry against the monstrous weapons men have made'. Everyone thought, when the alarm bell rang, that it was just another fire practice. But the first bombs had fallen on Hamburg and Leningrad, the headmaster said, and a full-scale nuclear attack was imminent . . . It's a real-life nightmare. Sarah and her family have to stay cooped up in the tightly-sealed kitchen for days on end, dreading the inevitable radioactive fall-out and the subsequent slow, torturous death, which seems almost preferable to surviving in a grey, dead world, choked by dust. But then, from out of the dust and the ruins and the desolation, comes new life, a new future, and a whole brave new world...

An Association of Jewish Libraries Sydney Taylor Honor Winner With a masterful mix of comic timing and disarming poignancy, Newbery Honoree Eugene Yelchin offers a memoir of growing up in Cold War Russia. Drama, family secrets, and a KGB spy in his own kitchen! How will Yevgeny ever fulfill his parents’ dream that he become a national hero when he doesn’t even have his own room? He’s not a star athlete or a legendary ballet dancer. In the tiny apartment he shares with his Baryshnikov-obsessed mother, poetry-loving father, continually outraged grandmother, and safely talented brother, all Yevgeny has is his little pencil, the underside of a massive table, and the doodles that could change everything. With equal amounts charm and solemnity, award-winning author and artist Eugene Yelchin recounts in hilarious detail his childhood in Cold War Russia as a young boy desperate to understand his place in his family.

Space-age science and stone-age politics make an extraordinarily dangerous mixture. It seems probable that in the future, the rapidity of scientificand technological change will produce ethical dilemmas and social tensions even more acute than those we experience today. It is likely that the fate of our species (and the fate of the biosphere) will be made precarious by the astonishing speed of scientific and technological change unless this progress is matched by the achievement of far greater ethical and political maturity than we have yet attained.
