L'invenzione della bomba atomica. 6 agosto 1945: l'inizio di una nuova era

Rhodes provides detailed biographies of figures like Oppenheimer and Fermi. I'm curious what motivated him to focus on these individuals' lives and how that shaped the narrative.

The book covers complex physics concepts, but I never felt lost. Did the way the science was explained make the history more compelling for others?

Reading about the development process made me think about the moral questions involved. Do others feel this history influences current views on nuclear proliferation?
