First published in 1966, Australia and Nuclear Weapons argues for an Australian initiative to establish a non-nuclear club and region, to include Australia, New Zealand, and the Maphilindo countries. In doing so, the authors consider general problems of nuclear disarmament as well as the specific challenges facing the region. The case for regional approaches to nuclear disarmament had been neglected at the time, and this work fills a gap in the general literature on nuclear strategy.
