Letter to the Editor ISIAMIC BOMB AND WESTERN WRITERS A certain amount of discretion is necessarily to be exercised by any one who writes a book. particularly so, if the book treats some international topic. A casual slip on the part of the writer may throw a world in convulsion and do unpredictable damage to the peace and solemnity of the entire mankind .

Did not the authors of "The Islamic Bomb" realize that such a name of book will mean insult to entire Muslim community and injure their feelings severely ,was it not possible to choose some other appropriate name , for example , "The nuclear threat increasing in the middle east",etc.Do the authors think that they have rendered any service to humanity or to any block by making the name of their book so conspicuous as to arouse the antagonistic feelings of two region of the world ,and to create rivalary and enmity between them. Feelings may smoulder and may not find way to expression , but the checked feelings do erupt with greater intensity in time . The book could have been written in a different way with better acceptability and better results.
