Dust jacket in protective mylar cover. Good binding and cover. Clean, unmarked pages. xvii, 492 p., ill., 23 cm. *Autographed by authors.* "Edward Teller was a Hungarian-born American nuclear physicist who was instrumental in the production of the first atomic bomb and the worldâ s first thermonuclear weapon, the hydrogen bomb. He is also known for his extraordinary contributions to nuclear and molecular physics, surface physics and spectroscopy. Teller moved to America in 1935 accepting the position of professor of physics at the George Washington University. His work here included predicting the Jahn-Teller Effect which distorts molecules in certain situations. He also contributed to surface physics and chemistry with the Brunauerâ Emmettâ Teller adsorption isotherm equation. Teller became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 1941 and became a part of the Manhattan Project during World War II, working on the first atomic bomb with J. Robert Oppenheimer. Teller was also interested creating a fusion weapon (hydrogen bomb) and pressed as hard as he could for its development. In 1946, Teller left Los Alamos to work at the University of Chicago, returning in 1950 when work on developing a hydrogen bomb was finally approved. Teller worked on the hydrogen bomb project, helping devise the Teller-Ulam two stage thermonuclear bomb design. The H-bomb was successfully tested in the Pacific in 1952. In 1952 Teller accepted the position of professor of physics at the University of California, Berkeley, a position he kept until 1960.". Signed.

First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Near Fine price-clipped dust jacket with light edge wear to the spine edges. This copy is inscribed by Edward Teller on the front flyleaf and also laid-in is a small photograph of Teller that he has signed. In this 1976 biography of Edward Teller, father of the hydrogen bomb, the authors present exclusive interviews, memorabilia, and photos provided by Teller. and delves into each stage of his life and career. The controversial Teller spearheaded America s effort to build the hydrogen bomb, and then testified against Robert Oppenheimer in his security clearance trial. The book explains his early persecution by the Hungarian communists, then the Nazis in Germany. His role in the Manhattan Project is described in detail. Also portrayed is the development of the H-bomb, including descriptions of its evolving design. Teller s life after the H-bomb is shown to a limited extent, with government surveillance of his activities and his despair over the limited test ban treaty as two of the highlights. The book offers a detailed and comprehensive view of Edward Teller. Though objective, the biography emphasizes the interviews with Teller and does not always fully treat the opinions of his critics.
