"Atomic Audit presents an unprecedented complete and authoritative review of the history and high cost of the entire U.S. nuclear weapons program. Included is a provocative, extraordinarily large estimate of casualties from nuclear fallout and a welcome analysis of the adverse consequences of unwarranted nuclear secrecy." —Glenn T. Seaborg, Co-discoverer of plutonium and former chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission (1961-1971)|"Atomic Audit lays bare the staggering price exacted upon the most technologically proficient of the cold war antagonists. More important, it begins to expose the policy, planning, and operational flaws that undercut both the logic and implementation of deterrence as perceived by its American practitioners." —General Lee Butler, Retired, former Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Strategic Command (1991-1994)
