“In Nuclear War: A Scenario, Annie Jacobsen gives us a vivid picture of what could happen if our nuclear guardians fail…Terrifying.”—Wall Street Journal

There is only one scenario other than an asteroid strike that could end the world as we know it in a matter of hours: nuclear war. And one of the triggers for that war would be a nuclear missile inbound toward the United States.


Every generation, a journalist has looked deep into the heart of the nuclear military establishment: the technologies, the safeguards, the plans, and the risks. These investigations are vital to how we understand the world we really live in—where one nuclear missile will beget one in return, and where the choreography of the world’s end requires massive decisions made on seconds’ notice with information that is only as good as the intelligence we have.

Pulitzer Prize finalist Annie Jacobsen’s Nuclear War: A Scenario explores this ticking-clock scenario, based on dozens of exclusive new interviews with military and civilian experts who have built the weapons, have been privy to the response plans, and have been responsible for those decisions should they have needed to be made. Nuclear War: A Scenario examines the handful of minutes after a nuclear missile launch. It is essential reading, and unlike any other book in its depth and urgency.

I’ve had a sick feeling for a few days since absorbing this book. I feel ‘absorbing’ is the appropriate term because most people, myself included, are completely ignorant of the fact that every day we are here is due purely to luck. Everything, literally everything, can all be gone in a few hours.

Incredibly effective in its goal

Great listen ! Gets slower then I liked near the middle but that's expected in simulation/scenario titles.

I learned alot!

The scariest book I've ever read. A cold descent into the possible consequences of the most horrific invention of mankind.

Should be a mandatory reading

It’s a very scary read. A lot of information and research about a topic we’d all rather not think about.

Horrific

This book really opened my eyes to the horror and frankly, the stupidity of nuclear weapons. The dramatic flare in this story at first I thought a little cheesy but later really enjoyed. It highlighted that even though there are plans in place for nuclear war, nothing will go as planned. An in depth look into the systems in place and what nuclear war really is...an apocalypse that will surely end society and possibly humanity altogether. This book is am incredible read I recommend to anyone. but be warned, you won't get warm butterfly feelings, there are no heros in the apocalypse.

Sobering, incredible, horrifying
