Recovering Redemption, written with a pastor{u2019}s bold intensity and a counselor{u2019}s discerning insight, takes you deeply into Scripture to take you deeply inside yourself, discovering that the heart of all our problems is truly the problem of our hearts. But because of what God has done, and because of what God can do, the most confident, contented person you know could actually be you-redeemed through Jesus Christ. _ None of us, really, can do what{u2019}s required to change our lives for the better, taking what{u2019}s persistently frustrating and making it perfectly satisfying. Yet as hopeless as that may sound, it is the flat-line truth in which good news comes to life . . . to your life. For just as what{u2019}s lost can be found, what{u2019}s wrong can-even now-be recovered.

This book is a study of the single most controversial issue arising in the single most important ongoing international arms control negotiation. The topic is the comprehensive nuclear test ban treaty (CTB) talks, and the core question concerns the likely 'scope' of the ultimate agreement: precisely which types of nuclear weapons-related events would be bared, and which would be preserved as legal, under a sound widely-acceptable, treaty? Weapons engineers in the United States, Russia, and elsewhere have created a range of ambiguous events some of which would help ensure the continuing 'reliability' of existing nuclear weapons, some of which would assist in the process of designing new genres of bombs, and some of which might be relevant to a range of wholly civilian activities, such as the production of fusion energy. Diplomats (aided by military, technical, legal, and other experts) are now attempting to resolve these issues in the treaty negotiations and the international - and for many countries, internal - political machinations are complex, important, and protracted.
