In this highly original and provocative work, Jenkins provides a meticulously researched history of United States weapons policy and shows how presidential advisors helped produce the very enemies they warned against. The comparisons Jenkins draws with the contemporary situation are clear and compelling.

Pressestimmen

"Dominick Jenkins illuminates the lethal interface between science and war making by reviewing the evolution of chemical weapons and airpower that implicates America in the emergence of mass terror in the prior century. Since September 11 the urgency of this challenge gives this book extraordinary relevance, all the more so as its manner of overcoming the scourge of terrorism is so radically different than what American leaders have been doing beneath the banner of 'waging war against global terror.'" - Richard Faulk "Dominick Jenkins's meticulous analysis of the events of ninety years ago is eerily relevant to the dangerous tensions between the United States of the twenty-first century and the Arab world." - Tam Dalyell, MP for Linlithgow, Father of the House of Commons "Science, technology, the state, weapons of mass destruction, notions of the 'enemy': after September 11, this nexus needs debating more than ever, Jenkins's fine book delves deep into history to provoke one." - Donald Mackenzie, Professor of Sociology, University of Edinburgh
