World on Path to Disaster, Bomb Pioneer Warns
"Arms control, Joseph Rotblat said, was as good as dead. The only way out of the disaster that lay ahead was to put the goal of total nuclear disarmament back on the agenda. "We have to convince the public that the continuation of current policies, in which the security of the world is maintained by the indefinite retention of nuclear weapons, is not realistic in the long run, because it is bound eventually to result in a nuclear holocaust in which the future of the human race
would be at stake. We must convince public opinion that the only alternative is the total elimination of nuclear weapons."
