520    A global history of U.S. nuclear espionage from its World 
       War II origins to today's threats from rogue states. Since
       1952 the nuclear club has grown to at least eight nations,
       while others are making serious attempts to join. Each 
       chapter chronologically focuses on the nuclear activities 
       of one or more countries, intermingling what the United 
       States believed was happening with accounts of what 
       actually occurred in each country's laboratories, test 
       sites, and decision-making councils. Intelligence scholar 
       Richelson weaves recently declassified documents into his 
       interviews with the scientists and spies involved in the 
       nuclear espionage, revealing new information about U.S. 
       intelligence work on the Soviet/Russian, French, Chinese, 
       Indian, Israeli, and South African nuclear programs; on 
       the attempts to solve the mysterious Vela Incident; and on
       current efforts to uncover nuclear secrets of Iran and 
       North Korea. Includes spy satellite photographs never 
       before extracted from the National Archives.--From
