Atomic Energy for Military Purposes


Book Description

Reprint of the famous document (August 1945) in which unclassified details of the effort which produced the atomic bomb were reported for the first time to the public at large. Of enduring value as an historical document, standing at the portal to the nuclear age. The present edition contains an interesting new foreword by Philip Morrison (who was there), and circumstances which attended the production of the report. For many (as for this reviewer) the republication of the Smyth Report is like meeting again a friend unseen since childhood; it motivated the career decisions of a whole generation of post-War physicists.
