Riguardo questo articolo

A fine copy of this 1989 second U.S. edition in a Very Good plus dust jacket, unclipped and priced at $16.95. The first edition was published by Monthly Review Press in 1962. Appears unread, no writing or marks. The dust jacket has a vertical rub (see photos) and there is a small white mark on the front panel. A little obscure and quite scarce (Via Libri lists four copies). The book, which has an introduction by Bertrand Russell, contains a correspondence between the German philosopher, Gunther Anders, and the lead pilot who gave the signal to drop the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and suffered severe self-recrimination for his involvement, a response unacceptable to his superiors and the U.S. government.
