Author Talk: The Second Nuclear Age: Strategy, Danger, and the New Power Politics by Paul Bracken
Ridgefielder Paul Bracken is currently a professor at Yale University. His book is about the changing face of global politics as nuclear weapons reemerge as a very real threat. Drawing on his years of experience analyzing national defense strategy, Bracken argues that the reemergence of nuclear weapons will transform the way we respond to conflict escalation. He will walk the audience through realistic war-game scenarios involving the Middle East, South Asia, and East Asia to emphasize how the United States must be prepared for managing such crises.
This program is co-sponsored by Books on the Common. Books will be available for sale and signing at the event. No registration.
