Marsh- Office of Arms Control and Defense Sciences at Argonne National Laboratory and co-author of Born Secret: The H-Bomb, the Progressive Case and National Security Richard Millers account of United States and Soviet efforts to develop the bomb and the history of nuclear testing in the U.S. from the first bomb up to the abolishing of the Atomic Energy Commission in 1974 is outstanding."- The Christian Science Monitor Richmond Virginia Times-Dispatch: :"Drawing his material from government files, Miller gives a thorough and formal look at the key events and the little-known side effects of all that was taking place. . The material is enough to make the story as fascinating as it is chilling."- Robert Merritt, Richmond VA Times-Dispatch Why then should this book be published at this time? Perhaps it is part of the Soviet-sponsored campaign to stop all nuclear tests, similar to the "ban the bomb" propaganda of the early 1960s."- Dixie Lee Ray, former chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission-This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title ER -
