Hiroshima and Nagasaki That We Never Forget – Not Specified

“AFTER READING the stories in this book, I am shocked once again by the extent to which the atomic bombing affected every aspect of survivors’ lives. The anxiety they still feel regarding potential aftereffects emerging in their own bodies or genetic effects emerging in their offspring is quite beyond imagination… an instantaneous exposure in August 1945 has kept survivors imprisoned by aftereffects for 70 years.”

“EVERY ONE of these personal testimonies shows what nuclear weapons and wars do to innocent children and families. Reliving such pain and loss cannot be easy, and these courageous hibakusha have put their suffering on these pages to teach us. They don’t want our compassion, but our commitment and action. In bringing together so many voices, this book sends a clear message to leaders as well as citizens around the world: we can best commemorate what happened by working together to ban and eliminate all nuclear weapons forever, and so make it impossible for such wars and abhorrent weapons of mass annihilation to be inflicted on humanity ever again.”
