whose continued existence is in doubt. A war with the hydrogen bombs puts an end to the
human race.In his view, it seems that the 'general public' have not realised the real impact
of a war with atomic bonds. A hydrogen bomb is 25,000 times as powerful as that which
destroyed Hiroshima. So the stark dreadful and unescobable problem before us is whether
we shall put an end to the human race or we shall give up wars. He explains in great detail
the role of ordinary people in the peace process and requests the 'general public' to be more
aware and assertive so that the fate of the Nations need not be decided by despotic leaders
alone.
