This event was recorded at Politics & Prose bookstore on January 4, 2013.

We no longer practice duck-and-cover, but the Cold War legacy of nuclear weapons still exists, as does the need to be vigilant against their use. Cirincione, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and the secretary of state's International Security Advisory Board, assesses the prospects for global security, noting that ten nations today have or seek nuclear arms, down from twenty-three in the 1960s.
