Abstrakt: | Nuclear war or hell on earth is considered as a myth and placed within the history of ideas beside the religious myths of paradise in heaven and the political myths of paradise on earth. It must become the predominant myth if the others are to continue to exist. The myth of nuclear extinction as a source of mass inspiration and action should be the basis of an ideology of preventive medicine. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
