Abstract

The article identifies problems with teaching guides used in nuclear age education in the U.S. The authors argue that the materials are designed to frighten students with nuclear war, provide a sympathetic image of the Soviet Union, cast doubt on U.S. military and arms control policy, and encourage anti-nuclear student activism. Examples of nuclear age teaching materials are mentioned.
