The author of NWSS is Cresson Kearny, a former US Army officer and member of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory 's Civil Defense Project. When NWSS was written in the 1970s, it was in the midst of the Cold War between the United States and Russia, and there was always the possibility that the world would be involved in a full-scale nuclear war. Furthermore, not only nuclear war between nations, but also terrorist attacks using multiple small nuclear weapons

'When Hitler first bombed London, the panic caused by the bomb caused far more damage than the bomb itself. Londoners can only live their daily lives without fear of airstrikes. It's the same with nuclear attacks, 'he said, saying that we should be more vigilant against panic caused by fear of nuclear weapons and radiation than the attacks themselves.

The following is an excerpt from a NWSS review submitted to Amazon.com.

This book is the best reference book I have ever seen to survive a nuclear war. The content is clearly written and easy to understand, and detailed diagrams and diagrams will teach you how to make shelters and tools in an easy-to-understand manner. It's a lifelong experience for two people who were at the forefront of surviving a nuclear war. Forget the crap that FEMA puts out and get this book. This book is worth many times the price. This book will surely be a reference for you.

Simply put, this is a manual for civil defense. What to do before a nuclear attack, and how to avoid many post-attack dangers (especially fallout). I'm surprised that this information isn't widely used in the United States. In fact, the general public is only aware that the 'government' must have plans to deal with catastrophes, with little awareness of civil defense. Although this book is full of detailed information and thick, even the slightest information in this manual is necessary to survive the drop of a nuclear weapon in the immediate vicinity.

I agree with other reviewers that this book will be very useful for writers who want to write about nuclear war. An interesting and easy-to-read explanation of 'what you should do', even if you think the likelihood of a nuclear attack is not very high, or if the area around your home is hypocenter and you cannot survive the first explosion. I think that there. You can read this manual online for free, but I think a nice bound version is definitely worth $ 20. I highly recommend it.

The bound version can also be purchased on Amazon, but at the time of writing the article, it is 21,481 yen, which is a considerable price.
