The book was written in the Cold War era, when communications were by landline and government radio - rather than the internet and other means of communication by individuals. H-bombs launched by states or popular revolt are the expectation in the book - not the details of modern discontent and action. Chaps rather than chapesses are in charge. There are a series of bunkers and 'underground buildings' to which the rulers will escape in the case of a war leaving the masses to survive (and be rigorously controlled after the war).

The author's thesis at the end is that governments are using variants of 'hold onto nurse (the government) for fear of something worse' to exert control. 80.254.147.68 (talk) 11:54, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
