Past Events

"Working Toward a World Without Nuclear Weapons"
President Reagan's Secretary of State George Shultz and Stanford physicist Sidney Drell had a conversation about steps toward nuclear disarmament with New York Times editor Philip Taubman. Although this was not an NAPF-SV-sponsored event, it was an interesting opportunity to hear the views of former Cold-War warriors who are now advocating ridding the world of nuclear weapons.

"Inside the Minds of Nuclear Warriors"
The speaker was Dr. Lynn Eden, a professor of sociology at Stanford University, Associate Director for Research for the Center for International Security and Cooperation at Stanford, and author of the prize-winning book "Whole World on Fire". In addition to providing a view into the process of planning for nuclear war that the public rarely hears, she answered a wide variety of questions from a clearly engaged audience for close to an hour.
