When humans first released the energy from atoms, we came to see all matter as nothing but speed and flame. From this moment, the billowing waves of the global nuclear arms race formed a menacing undercurrent subverting the existing international situation. The Manhattan Project was the protagonist at the helm of all this, the scientific project universally recognized as the largest in scale, incurring the highest costs and having the most profound influence on the world. This project was a work of collective knowledge thrust forth from a human race on the edge of obliteration. This book collects a large variety of stories, allowing the reader to get to know the central characters, technical standards, administrative muscle and historical legacy of the Manhattan Project.
