Summary

BBC security correspondent, Gordon Corera, and rock critic, Ken Tucker, on this edition of Fresh Air. Corera is a security correspondent for the BBC. In his new book, he warns that we may be entering a "new era of accelerated proliferation." He writes about the challenges of halting the proliferation of nuclear weapons and about A.Q. Khan, the man described by a former CIA Director as "at least as dangerous as Osama bin Laden." Khan developed the nuclear capability for Pakistan, and then went on to build a clandestine global nuclear technology network selling to Iran and North Korea before he was stopped. Corera's book is called Shopping for Bombs: Nuclear Proliferation, Global Insecurity, and The Rise and Fall of The A.Q. Khan Network. Finally, rock critic Ken Tucker reviews Bob Dylan's new album, Modern Times. [Broadcast Date: September 11, 2006]
