A Winter of Discontent: The Nuclear Freeze and American Politics FROM THE PUBLISHER
". . . This is essential reading for anyone who wants to make sense of the freeze movement or make nuclear policy more responsive to democratic processes." Pam Solo Co-director, Institute for Peace and International Security "A rare achievement, combining impeccable scholarly research with lively, readable prose. . . . It is at the same time a careful, thoughtful history of the recent nuclear freeze movement, and a sophisticated analysis of the problem of social change in this country, using that movement as a test. The synthesis of theory and history is accomplished with great skill, making the book valuable to students of social change and to a larger public." Howard Zinn Professor of Political Science Boston University
