Roosevelt died, the end of the war in Europe was only three weeks away, and the scientists had still to test their new weapon. The atomic bomb had been developed to forestall Nazi Germany. It fell to the incoming President Harry S. Truman, who had heard nothing of the project before taking office, to decide on the use of the bomb to finish the war against Japan. He and his advisers had no precedents to guide them as they considered what they should do. They could not sound opinion in Congress or through the Press, and within their closely drawn circle there were genuine differences of interest and belief. Len Giovannitti and Fred Freed have used much new and unfamiliar material, including extensive interviews with the participants, in this reconstruction of the events and circumstances that led to the dropping of the bomb. They trace the course of the discussions between the politicians and their service and technical advisers, the part played by personal relationships, and the attempt of some of the scientists to stop the bomb being used without warning. In addition, they supply a thorough analysis of developments abroad, and in particular the situation in Japan. The authors show that the debate in Washington and the atomic plants was careful and wide-ranging, and that issues are no less complex for being supremely important. The result is to provide both an imaginative study of decision making and a valuable contribution to our understanding of the closing months of the Second World War.'
