Nuclear Weapons—Development, Detonation, Deterrence & Disarmament:
A Bibliography (2020)
Patrick S. O’Donnell
The categories in the title cover most and thus not all of the relevant literature about nuclear
weapons collected here: for example, “non-proliferation,” biographies of scientists, and
strategic decision-making are excluded (it would have ruined the alliteration!). In other
words, rather more is included than is denoted by the title. While not exhaustive, the list
aims to be comprehensive. At some point I hope to divide this into sections according to the
categories (with an addition: ‘Miscellany’). As with all my compilations, I welcome
suggestions—books, in English—for additional entries. Geoffrey Darnton graciously
provided me with one of his book’s bibliographies from which I found additional titles for
the latest draft in 2020.
