MIT's Science, Technology, and Global Security Working Group presents:

Nuclear Abolition!
A talk by Ambassador James E. Goodby
co-author of the report: Reykjavik Revisited: Steps toward a World 
Free of Nuclear Weapons

12:00p - 1:30p

Free and open to the public.

This preliminary report from The Hoover Institution's conference 
"Reykjavik Revisited", held in October 2007, examines the practical 
steps required to address the nuclear threat and to move toward the 
goal established by Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev at their 
historic 1986 meeting in Reykjavik about the elimination of nuclear 
weapons. Co-editors of the report are George P. Shultz and Sidney D. Drell.

Ambassador Goodby will discuss the report as well as the recent 
conference on disarmament, Achieving the Vision of a World Free of 
Nuclear Weapons, held in Oslo, Norway in February 2008.

Ambassador James E. Goodby was President Clinton's Special Ambassador 
and Chief United States Negotiator for the Safe and Secure 
Dismantlement of Nuclear Weapons. He is currently a Research Fellow 
at The Hoover Institution at Stanford University and a Research 
Affiliate of the Science, Technology, and Society Program at MIT.
