内容简介:
Pulitzer Prize-winning author Richard Rhodes delivers a
riveting account of the nuclear arms race and the Cold War.
In the Reagan-Gorbachev era, the United States and the Soviet
Union came within minutes of nuclear war, until Gorbachev boldly
launched a campaign to eliminate nuclear weapons, setting the stage
for the 1986 Reykjavik summit and the incredible events that
followed. In this thrilling, authoritative narrative, Richard
Rhodes draws on personal interviews with both Soviet and U.S.
participants and a wealth of new documentation to unravel the
compelling, shocking story behind this monumental time in human
history—its beginnings, its nearly chilling consequences, and its
effects on global politics today.

媒体评论
“A gripping narrative of the paranoia, cynicism, bureaucratic
infighting and manipulation that brought the world close to
annihilation.”
—San Francisco Chronicle
“Every age finds the writers it needs, and the nuclear age has
found Richard Rhodes.”
—The Nation
“Throughout his assiduously researched work, Rhodes cites
stunning statistics to support his contention that the nuclear
competition has run amok . . . dense with crucial, revealing
information obtained from personal interviews and newly
declassified documents, Rhodes’s Arsenals of Folly is a dramatic
and penetrating investigation of the nuclear arms race and its
eventual end.”
—The Philadelphia Inquirer
“A terrifying overview of the global potential for
killing.”
—The Economist
“Rhodes performs the remarkable feat of reconstructing all the
niggling, the misunderstanding, the moments of obtuseness in a way
that proves dramatic precisely in its repetitiveness and
frustration.”
—Newsday
“His artful narrative contains some real gems.”
—New York Times Book Review
“Highly detailed and gripping . . . a chilling conclusion.”
—Scientific American
“Rich and riveting . . . a splendid writer . . .
harrowing.”
—Los Angeles Times Book Review
“Using an impressive range of sources, clean writing and a clear
sense of the dramatic, Rhodes triumphs.”
—Rocky Mountain News
“As a contribution to our understanding of the latter half of the
20th century, Rhodes’s achievement is on a par with Taylor Branch’s
America in the King Years trilogy and Robert Caro’s monumental
ongoing biography of Lyndon B. Johnson.”
—The Mercury News (San Jose, CA)
“Rhodes is not only an outstanding researcher and historian, he
is a superb writer who enraptures the reader with a gripping
narrative. Upon reading this important book, one will walk away
ruminating on the unspeakable horror of the nuclear apocalypse that
was, it often seems miraculously, avoided during the Cold
War.”
—The Sunday Star-Ledger
“Stylistically, Arsenals of Folly is often quite distinguished.
The impressive opening chapter–which describe the Chernobyl
disaster in a controlled but morbidly involving tone–is an
achievement . . . as an allegory of manipulated intelligence,
miscalculation, and fatal ideology, it is alarmingly
relevant.”
—The Tennessean
“No finer manual for learning from the mistakes of our past than
[this] valuable book.”
—Seed magazine
“Detailed and dramatic . . . devastating commentary on the
perilous nature of the nuclear arms race.”
—Houston Chronicle
“Intriguing insight . . . Rhodes masterfully dissects decades of
what he considers reckless and misguided policy decisions that led
the United States and the Soviet Union to expand their nuclear
arsenals beyond all logic . . . The author’s deftly painted
character portraits–he mentions Gorbachev’s “southern Russian
accent and hillbilly grammar”–make for an engrossing
narrative.”
—The American Heritage
“Absorbing . . . “
—The Seattle Times
“With skillful insight, Richard Rhodes has woven accounts by
Soviet and American insiders into a dark and troubling history of
superpower insanity. He makes you wonder when we'll wake up, since
some of the American villains keep coming back to haunt us: Cheney,
Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Perle.”
—David Shipler, Russia: Broken Idols, Solemn Dreams
“Richard Rhodes, our leading historian of nuclear weapons, has
written a powerful, clear-eyed account of the nuclear arms race,
focusing on Mikhail Gorbachev as the heroic figure in the history
of mankind’s 20th Century flirtation with oblivion. Rhodes gives
the still-neglected happy ending to that flirtation the sweeping,
insightful, and compelling treatment it deserves. So yes, this is
an “important” book, but it reads like a political thriller.”
—Robert G. Kaiser, Why Gorbachev Happened
“Compelling . . . an insightful chronicle of epoch-shaping
events.”
—Booklist
"Rhodes accomplishes what neither American nor Soviet political
cultures could manage over a half-century of nuclear cold war–to
find the flesh-and-blood human reality on both sides. Rich with
revelation, insight and detail, riveting as a powerful novel,
Arsenals of Folly is transcendent history, haunting our memory and
experience."
—Roger Morris, Partners in Power: The Clintons and Their
America
