Dr Strangelove by Peter George
The novel that made the Stanley Kubrick film possible: a hilarious, serious savage farce. Major Kong is the commander of the air bomber nicknamed Leper Colony. He has orders to proceed to their primary target. General Jack D. Riper, in command of Burpelson Air Force Base, sips his glass of grain alcohol and rainwater and calmly puts the base on condition Red. President Merkin Muffley is reminded by General Buck Turgidson about Operation Ultech, the emergency war plan which allows a junior commander to order a nuclear 'retaliation'. Kissof, the Russian Premier, reminds President Muffley about the Russian counter-weapon, the Doomsday Machine. Ful scale nuclear war is inevitable. Only on man can save the situation, and he has the reputation of a dangerous, if brilliant, madman - Dr Strangelove.
