In Stealth: The Secret Race to Invent an Invisible Aircraft Peter Westwick reveals the process by which the U.S. military was able to produce this undetectable machine, first in the form of the F-117A, then the B-2 bomber, one sharply angular and the other smooth and round. Taking into account the role of technology, as well as the contemporary understanding of physics and engineering, Westwick offers a unique narrative, one which immerses readers in therace to produce a weapon that might save the world from nuclear Apocalypse. Stealth is a nuanced and engaging narrative about engineering ingenuity and provides a fresh view of the Cold War period.
