Beskrivelse
The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer.
The inspiration for Christopher Nolan's new film Oppenheimer, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Nonfiction! Physicist and polymath, as familiar with Hindu scriptures as he was with quantum mechanics, J. Robert Oppenheimer - director of the Manhattan Project that developed the atomic bomb - was the most famous scientist of his generation.
In their meticulous and riveting biography, Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin reveal a brilliant, ambitious, complex and flawed man, profoundly involved with some of the momentous events of the twentieth century. 'Reads like a thriller, gripping and terrifying,' Sunday Times.
