The travails of a campaign for nuclear disarmament... although
not _the_ Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.

James, you said it was published in 1988; any chance it was actually
written much earlier (to match your notions of its tone)? Anything
that dates the writing as later than the 70s?

Perhaps written earlier, but publishing reconsidered due to some of
Brunner's friends being too identifiable.

Jad Smith's John Brunner, _which I have read_, explains that
Brunner wrote the novel in the early 1960s. Various unfortunate
events prevented publication until 1988.
