One of the 'inventors' of the nuclear bomb, Sir Joseph Rotblat soon turned away from weapons research to make a principled stand against the dangers of nuclear proliferation. This work contains a series of dialogues between Rotblat and Daisake Ikeda, the leader of the world's largest and most influential Buddhist organisation.

About the Author

Sir Joseph Rotblat, who died in August 2005, was one of the scientists recruited to build the atomic bombs which brought the Second World War to an end. Turning his back on the nuclear programme, he subsequently became a tireless campaigner for the abolition of nuclear weapons. Co-founder in 1957 of the Pugwash Conference on Science and World Affairs, he received both the Albert Einstein Peace Prize in 1992 and the Noble Peace Prize in 1995. Daisaku Ikeda is the President of Soka Gakkai International and the author of over 80 books on Buddhist themes.
