Nowhere does historical memory have more relevance to the present than in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Writers as diverse as French philosopher Jean Baudrillard and Japanese Nobel laureate Kenzaburō Ōe have commented that the dates of August 6 and 9, 1945, forever altered our understanding of what it means to be human. Humanity can now envisage its own, permanent obliteration along with that of most life forms on the planet. Even if all nuclear weapons were to be abolished, they cannot be un-invented—the contemporary, and perhaps last, phase of humanity is a nuclear one.1
