Zusammenfassung:
Nuclear alliances are high stakes partnerships with the potential to enhance security, goodwill, scientific and technical innovation, and economic well-being; or, they risk a state's very existence, generate social and political unrest, and fracture frameworks for international cooperation and jeopardize global reputations.

'Sharing Nuclear Secrets' is a single-volume study of the Anglo-American nuclear relationship, illuminating both its fragility and durability.
