{detailed description}This book contains a straight down-to-earth description of what an atomic bomb can do to ships, islands, seaports, harbours—and thereby to human beings. Its author was a "radiological monitor" with the task force that made the Bikini tests. He has given here a day-by-day account of the operation, seen not through the eyes of a technical expert, but by a doctor particularly interested in finding out the bomb's immediate and after effects on people, intensely aware that the results of these tests were of the utmost importance to him personally, as to each one of us. Convinced that published reports available to the average man have given him an incomplete and therefore distorted view, have even perhaps lulled him into a false sense of security, Dr. Bradley has interpreted the real truth for everyone to read. That truth constitutes a warning that no man can afford to ignore. It demonstrates undeniably that atomic war has no remedy, and that our only hope is to control the power that, once loosed, will destroy us all.
