Readings for final homework assignment, plus extras

Here are the two required web readings for the final homework (#7):
1) "Fact sheet" on the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT)
http://www.armscontrol.org/factsheets/nptfact
2) New York Times article from last year on the Obama administration's "Nuclear Posture Review." http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/06/world/06arms.html

It really is interesting and worthwhile to read the Nuclear Posture Review itself, or at least the "executive summary" at the beginning.  This document lays out U.S. nuclear policy in fairly clear language, although there is a lot of specialized vocabulary associated with nuclear policy issues.
