Summary

In early December, 1941, the United States was thrust into the Second World War. Some of the world’s top physicists, including Albert Einstein, had warned the military that a new and deadly weapon, the atomic bomb, was not only feasible, but that the Nazis may already be developing it. A crash program to be the first to develop nuclear weapons transformed a desert community in New Mexico, and brought to prominence a brilliant but troubled scientist who, within just a few years, would be celebrated and reviled as “the father of the atomic bomb.” 

Robert Oppenheimer and the Manhattan Project is a short biography and history that tells the story of the man and his mission; his loves and his losses; and his rise and fall.
