Robert Oppenheimer.'Succeeds as both a graphic primer and a philosophical meditation.' Kirkus Reviews (starred review)This sweeping historical narrative traces the spark of invention from the laboratories of nineteenthcentury Europe to the massive industrial and scientific efforts of the Manhattan Project, and even transports the reader into a nuclear reactioninto the splitting atoms themselves.The power of the atom was harnessed in a topsecret government compound in Los Alamos, New Mexico, by a group of brilliant scientists led by the enigmatic wunderkind J. Robert Oppenheimer. Focused from the start on the monumentally difficult task of building an atomic weapon, these men and women soon began to wrestle with the moral implications of actually succeeding. When they detonated the first bomb at a test site codenamed Trinity, they recognized that they had irreversibly thrust the world into a new and terrifying age.With powerful renderings of WWII's catastrophic events at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, FetterVorm unflinchingly chronicles the farreaching political, environmental, and psychological effects of this new invention. Informative and thoughtprovoking, Trinity is the ideal introduction to one of the most significant events in history.
