This book has been prepared to facilitate more informed public debate in Australia over the dangers of nuclear war and ways of reducing its likelihood in the future. It provides a summary of the basic facts and issues that underly the nuclear debate as well as provide an assessment of Australia's contribution to disarmament and arms control. The report has three basic aims: to provide a compendium or factual information on our current nuclear circumstances and our continuing search to control and eliminate nuclear arms; to describe and analyse Australia's contributions to disarmament and arms control and the maintenance of international peace and security; and to help prepare an agenda for informed debate over our future direction and policies for reducing the risk of nuclear war.
