THE MAN IN THE THICK LEAD SUIT by Daniel Lang

THE MAN IN THE THICK LEAD SUIT

By

Pub Date: Sept. 9th, 1954
Publisher: Oxford

Some temperate and observant pieces about our atomic world, which appeared first in The New Yorker. There is Von Braun who found that ""Any real scientist ends up a religious man"", Pollard, the executive director of Oak Ridge's Institute of Nuclear Studies, a test detonation at Yucca Flats, prospecting for uranium- and more. A thoughtful examination, this ranges from things seen to the morality beyond.
