Nuclear Weapons—Development, Detonation, Deterrence & Disarmament:

A Bibliography

Patrick S. O’Donnell

Department of Philosophy

Santa Barbara City College (2013)

The categories in the title cover most and thus not all of the relevant literature about nuclear

weapons collected here: for example, “non-proliferation,” biographies of scientists, and

strategic decision-making are excluded (it would have ruined the alliteration!). In other

words, rather more is included than is denoted by the title. While not exhaustive, the list

aims to be comprehensive. At some point I hope to divide this into sections according to the

categories (with an addition: ‘Miscellany’). As with all my compilations, I welcome

suggestions—books, in English—for additional entries.
