13 Reality Check: The Hiroshima And Nagasaki Bombings in Pictures
On the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the first atomic bombings, Arms Control Today assembles a short photo essay to help recall and confront the consequences of nuclear weapons and nuclear war in ways that words cannot describe.
16 A Readiness to Harm: The Health Effects of Nuclear Weapons Complexes
Since the bombings in Japan, nuclear weapons have not been used in a military attack. Nonetheless, they have left a trail of devastation: civilian populations stricken with cancer caused by the fallout from atomospheric nuclear tests, workers and soldiers exposed to radiation at nuclear weapons production plants and during nuclear exercises, and uranium miners poisoned by radon after working in unventilated mines.
