Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Near Fine jacket. Book. Octavo. xxiv + 353 pp, Foreword, preface, introduction, 27 chapters, notes, slurces cited, index. A posthumous publication, edited and supplemented by Robert Crease. The resulting "loose ends" may intrigue readers more than a finished product would have. What remains is Oppenheimer, his own words, his interaction with Abraham Pais and other physicists. (e.g., Edward Teller) as well as the issues that surround nuclear and thermonuclear weapons. Pais was Jewish, and, after the NAZI invasion of Holland, spent World War II evading them.
