Sinossi
The ramifications of the Manhattan Project are with us to this day. The atomic bombs that came out of it brought an end to the war in the Pacific, but at a heavy loss of life in Japan and the opening of a Pandora s box that has tested international relations. This book traces the history of the Manhattan Project, from the first glimmerings of the possibility of such a catastrophic weapon to the aftermath of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It profiles the architects of the bomb and how they tried to reconcile their personal feelings with their ambition as scientists. It looks at the role of the politicians and it includes first-hand accounts of those who experienced the effects of the bombings.2015 is the 70th anniversary of the dropping of the bombs. A fascinating account, written for laymen, which looks at every aspect of this pivotal event in world history. Includes photographs.

Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. 192 pages, 12 chapters and an index. On page 177-178 there is a fold at the upper outer edge that I have attempted to straighten out. This story from its inception in 1941 saw some of the West's best physicists and engineers develop the most potent armament known to man. This book tells the tale of the events of how a gifted and often conflicted group of scientists devoted themselves to unlocking the secrets of nuclear fission. A very nice copy; available for immediate shipment, carefully packed in a sturdy box! Codice articolo 012471
