Review

"A joint biography of two of the intellectual giants of the 20th century.... Heims captures the tension of the Manhattan Project...and continues with the story of the nuclear weapons race of the early 1950s, which he views as inhuman. He also seeks to define the social function of scientists."--"Library Journal"
