the making of atomic bomb

From the discovery of the nucleus to the making of atomic bomb, this Pulitzer Prize winning book tackles the people, discoveries and places of the Atomic Age in spellbinding detail. Rhodes tells the story of nuclear physics in the first half of the 20th century, wartime work on the bomb, and how the world -- and especially science -- has grappled with the horrific consequences of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. A major arc of the book is how a remarkable group of physicists, German and American, were thrust out of the ivory tower and into wartime efforts -- and onto the stage of world history.
