About this product
Product Information
During World War II, the United States was home to some of the world's greatest scientists, including some who were fleeing persecution in their own war-torn countries. When scientific discoveries provided a possible way to end the war, the United States government authorized further research. The three-year experiment resulted in the most powerful weapon on earth. Highlighting the personal stories of the people behind the development of atomic powers, author Doreen Gonzales presents the political, scientific, and social issues surrounding the bomb, and looks at today's issues about living in a world with nuclear weapons.Product Identifiers

ReviewsGonzales and McCormick contribute two well-done volumes to the In American History series, which offers readers in-depth examinations of specific events, movements, or institutions in American history. The Manhattan Project traces the events and people integral to the creation of the atomic bomb, particularly its political roots, and relates its impact on the outcome of World War II. The Vietnam Antiwar Movement presents a history of the Vietnam protests, exploring their effects on the development of political activism. Each account is well-documented and includes a time line and reading and organization lists. Archival photographs and documents enhance the books' value for research and curricular studies. Both volumes are worthy additions to a recommended series. See Series Roundup for more titles., Booklist January 1 & 15, 2000
