During the Cold War, the Canadian government's approach to NATO and nuclear weapons raised eyebrows, provoked newspaper headlines, and angered Americans and Europeans alike as new ways of thinking among Canadian leaders competed with traditional attitudes and approaches. In NATO and the Bomb Erika Simpson helps explain contemporary defence decisions and Canada's support - or lack thereof - for NATO.
