Братство бомбы. Подробная и захватывающая история создания оружия массового...

If science is the history of the twentieth century, then no drama can match the intensity of passions with the drama of `Bombs`. The history of the human conflict that linked the three scientists most responsible for the advent of the nuclear age - Robert Oppenheimer, Ernest Lawrence and Edward Teller - has until now been known only in broad outline. Gregg Gerken spent ten years researching and writing this book, based on personal documents, interviews with surviving members of the Manhattan Project, recently declassified documents, and encrypted messages obtained from the archives of the FBI and KGB, and other primary sources. The author focuses on questions of loyalty to science, country, family and the need for a painful choice between them. n-weapon
