Arsenals of Folly: The Making of the Nuclear Arms Race
Tuesday October 16, 2007 at 6:00pm
Mechanics' Institute
57 Post Street
San Francisco Bay Area, California 94104 Get Directions
Pulitzer Prize winning author Richard Rhodes examines the arms race during the final years of the Cold War and the Reagan-Gorbachev decade from memoirs, interviews, and newly released information. The use of “fake intelligence” and “threat inflation,” invoked from that era, are eerily prescient to President Bush’s foreign policies in the Middle East today.

An affiliate of Stanford University’s Center for International Security and Cooperation, Richard Rhodes lectures to both college and professional audiences. He is the author or editor of twenty-two books, including The Making of the Atomic Bomb, which won a Pulitzer Prize, a National Book award, and a National Books Circle Award.
