description: Today's Nuclear Freeze demonstrations bring to prominence one of America's most important social movements. Rebels Against War, updating and expanding Lawrence S. Wittner's highly praised 1969 classic, describes and analyzes the American peace movement over the past half century. The book draws upon extensive research, including examination of the records of the major peace groups and interviews with their leaders. New material places the last twenty years⁠—from SANE and Women's Strike for Peace to the Freeze movement⁠—in historical context.
