Böcker av Robert Serber

"An underground classic. Though declassified in 1965, [the primer] has not been widely available. . . . This edition is an essential part of the library of anyone interested in Manhattan Project history."--American Physical Society Journal "An extraordinary document. . . . [Serber's] analyses were elegant and compact yet sensibly accurate."--Physics Today

A prominent member of the Manhattan Project, Robert Serber was one of a team of scientists who assembled the bombs on Tinina Island for transport to Hiroshima and Nagasaki. He was also one of the first Americans to walk among the Japanese ruins after the catastrophe. This revealing self portrait is the story of Serber's life before, during, and after World War II.
