The United States is the mightiest nation in history, yet for six decades one of the worldˇ¦s weakest states has challenged the superpower and kept it at bay. Today, that country also threatens to change the course of human events with an act of unimaginable devastation. Nuclear Showdown analyses the failed society that has become the gravest threat to international order: North Korea. Changˇ¦s insightful book reveals the full horror of the crisis threatening to turn Asia into the worldˇ¦s next battleground.
How can North Korea be stopped? No one seems to have an answer. For more than half a century, policymakers have failed when it comes to subjugating Kim II Sung and his son, Kim Jong II. Nuclear Showdown proposes a solution that can defuse the standoff once and for all.
