vii, 249 pp, illus. Original cloth. Very Good. First Edition. Long note by E. Dale Trout on front flyleaf: "This book, published just as the USA was into WWII appeared as the US was setting up the Manhattan District to research the atomic bomb. In the upper ranks of science this book had the possibility of blowing the whole cover off the bomb business, for altho about 50 papers on nuclear effects had been published they were on small areas of the project. Here was a full fledged book on the subject. I knew a dozen people, scientists, who were not in the project who knew what had to be going on at Oak Ridge, Tenn. This book raised quite a stir and the publishers got back as many as possible. They never contacted me & I had the book thruout the war. EDT." With two bookplates of Dale Trout.
