520    "What is the soundtrack for a nuclear war? During the Cold
       War, over 500 songs were written about nuclear weapons, 
       fear of the Soviet Union, civil defense, bomb shelters, 
       uranium mining, the space race, espionage, the Berlin Wall,
       and glasnost. This music uncovers aspects of the world-
       changing events that documentaries and history books 
       cannot. In Atomic Tunes, Tim and Joanna Smolko explore 
       everything from the serious to the comical, the morbid to 
       the crude, showing the widespread concern among musicians 
       who were trying to cope with the effect of communism on 
       American society and the consequences of a potential 
       nuclear conflict of global proportions. Atomic Tunes 
       presents a musical history of the Cold War, offering 
       insight into the songs that capture the fear of those who 
       lived under the shadow of Stalin, Sputnik, mushroom clouds,
       and missiles"--|cBack cover.
