- "Edited by Dr. Percy Dearmer, Canon of Westminster".
- "The issue, indeed, is simple. The motives and methods of human life are not sufficiently moralised: it was to moralise the machinery of production, to limit the power of selfishness, that Wilberforce and Shaftesbury were working a century ago; and the whole world now enjoys what Christians then won: but in many ways industry and business, and family life, and civic and political activity, need further moralisation. Money -- the necessary use of tokens of exchange -- has been overlooked in its moral aspect (in spite of what Christ said about it) .... And, alas, there was one aspect of human life which was not understood a hundred years ago; and to this our present miseries are mainly due. The very word 'international' had then only just been coined by Jeremy Bentham. The whole conception of moralising international relations was in its infancy. So the world went on to its doom. So, because the nations and their representatives have not yet learnt the elements of international behaviour, we stand at this moment of writing on the brink of irretrievable disaster. It is in a very real sense true that only Christ can save the world from ruin to-day. Are we prepared to let his spirit save the nations from themselves ?" -- Preface, p. 10-11.

- Report of a working party of the Board for Social Responsibility, chaired by the Rt. Rev. John Austin Baker, Bishop of Salisbury, with the following terms of reference: "(i) To study the implications for Christian discipleship of the acceptance by the major military powers of a role for thermonuclear weapons in their strategy; (ii) To consider the bearing of this on the adequacy of past Christian teaching and ethical analysis regarding the conduct of war; (iii) To advise the Board on ways in which the members of the Churches can be helped to participate more effectively in public debate on these issues; and (iv) from time to time to prepare for publication discussion papers on the matters under consideration. ... At an early stage we asked the Board to relieve us of the responsibility of meeting the requirements of the third and fourth of our terms of reference, believing that they would divert our attention from our principal task". -- Intro., pp. [vii]-viii.

- "[W]e are debating two documents, the paper-backed report `The Church and the Bomb', produced by the Bishop of Salisbury's [John Austin Baker] Working Party, and the report GS 542, with the same title, produced by the Board for Social Responsibility, in which the Board comments on the paper-back. As members of the Synod know, it is strictly the Board's report which is before us, with the paper-back as an appendix to it, but it is, of course, open to members to refer to both documents in our debate". -- p. 3.
