Synopsis

The Pacific Ocean is the most nuclear-contaminated region in the world. It is used by the US, Britain and French as a testing ground for atomic weapons. This book looks at the movements in Australia, New Zealand and the micro-states of the Pacific, whose initiatives have ranged from the banning of US warships by Vanuatu and New Zealand, to the Rarotonga South Pacific Nuclear-Free Treaty.
