Nukes

The North Korean test is terrible news. I think we are now (meaning in the next four or five years) going to experience a doubling of the nuclear club. It's hard to see what the Bush Admin and China can achieve at this point. Read this Robert Kaplan article in the Atlantic for some implications.

And if you need to get a better understanding of how nukes were developed, built and used, go no further than the Making of the Atomic Bomb.
