The story of the interplay between science and espionage, morality and military necessity, which marked the German-bomb programme and the Allied response to it. It revolves round Werner Heisenberg, one of the century's greatest physicists and the only one of real stature to stay on during the war. The Allies knew the Germans had the materials to construct the bomb; in Heisenberg they also had the intellectual know-how. What role did he in fact play, and what were his aims and motives?
