• The Anti-Nuclear Movement (paperback edition)

• Author Jennifer Smith
• Edited by: Jennifer Smith
• Published by Greenhaven Press

On August 6, 1945, the flash of the first atomic bomb sparked the growth of a dissenting minority that would become the Anti-Nuclear Movement. This anthology explores the movement's development from a reaction to nuclear arms to its inclusion of anti-nuclear power advocates in preparation for the challenges of the new millennium.

Review:

"The 21 essays, speeches, book excerpts, and personal observations, organized historically, look at the movement from both inside and out. The anthology offers a solid starting point for research."
-- Booklist (September 2002)

"This title in the new American Social Movements series provides a more thorough historical overview. Students seeking authoritative primary and secondary sources...will find this readable and a useful research tool."
-- Booklist (September 2002)

"In the new American Social Movements series, these anthologies of articles, speeches interviews, and scholarly essays are for an older, sophisticated audience. There are some fascinating present day writings sure to open up discussion...There is as much here for adults as there is for teens; in fact, the books would be excellent for family discussion."
-- Booklist (July 2002)
