- Abstract
"Unparalleled Catastrophe: Life and Death in the Third Nuclear Age" by Rhys Crilley is a book that argues for a reevaluation of our approach to security. The book explores the concept of the Third Nuclear Age, which is characterized by overlapping crises such as the democratic deficit and systemic injustices rooted in racial and colonial logics. Crilley uses affective response and everyday experiences to make the topic accessible and highlights the dangers of normalizing nuclear weapons. The book also examines the COVID-19 pandemic, populist leaders, and racial injustices to illustrate the limitations of current approaches to global crises. Overall, the book calls for a shift in thinking about security and offers recommendations for addressing these challenges together.
