Robert Oppenheimer: The Life and Legacy of the Father of the Atomic Bomb [Large Print]

By Andrew M. Bos

J. Robert Oppenheimer was a brilliant physicist who led the Manhattan Project, the secret U.S. government program to develop the atomic bomb. He was also a deeply moral man who was haunted by the implications of his work.

This book tells the story of Oppenheimer's life, from his early days as a student at Harvard to his death in 1967. It explores his scientific achievements, his role in the development of the atomic bomb, and his later activism against nuclear weapons.

The book also examines the complex legacy of Oppenheimer. He is often hailed as a hero for his role in developing the atomic bomb, but he is also criticized for the destructive power of his creation.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of science, the Cold War, or the ethics of nuclear weapons. It is a balanced and insightful account of a complex and controversial figure.
