Survival Under Atomic Attack is a film produced in 1951 by the U.S. Office of Civil Defense during the early Cold War era. Narrated by journalist Edward R. Murrow, the film was designed to educate American civilians on how to respond during a nuclear attack. The film outlines the three main dangers of an atomic bomb—blast, heat, and radiation—and provides practical advice for protection.

This book considers nuclear deterrence as a form of authority. It describes the rise of deterrence in the Anglosphere particularly as the rule of economic law hardened to protect a civilization in its deterministic, automated phase. 

Do scientists speak truth to power? During the Cold War, a group of American strategists and science advisors claimed to do precisely that. Styling themselves as figures of rationality and restraint, they insisted that mutual assured destruction was the natural logic of the atomic age: as long as nuclear deterrence was credible, no one would ever shoot first. This doctrine, known as "strategic stability," became the foundation of the arms control movement. But in this counterhistory, Benjamin Wilson shows that we have misunderstood them and their efforts.

Few raids of the Second World War have captured the public imagination like Operation Chastise. Here is the full story—not the familiar headlines, but the unexpected details that reveal how ingenuity, improvisation, and human courage combined to pull off one of history’s most audacious bombing missions.

Atomic weaponry is widely understood as a story of American scientific achievement—but scientists working in Britain played a vital role in its development. Including Nobel Prize winners and Jewish refugees from Nazi Germany, these scientists have long since been forgotten. But without their expertise, Robert Oppenheimer's research at Los Alamos would never have succeeded. Gareth Williams unearths the true story of the top-secret British atomic program, codenamed "Tube Alloys," established in 1940.

World War II is remembered as the war of machines: tanks breaking through the Ardennes, bombers darkening European skies, and convoys of trucks pushing supplies to the front. Yet beneath the roar of engines moved another, quieter power — millions of horses and mules, whose muscles pulled the very sinews of war. The Role of the Horse in the Second World War: The Hidden Machine uncovers the forgotten story of these animals, restoring them to the centre of the world’s most mechanised conflict. Far from being relics of the past, horses proved indispensable on every front.
