The story of the twentieth century is largely the story of the power of science and technology. Within that story is the incredible tale of the human conflict between three men-Robert Oppenheimer, Ernest Lawrence, and Edward Teller-the scientists most responsible for the advent of weapons of mass destruction. How did science, enlisted in the service of the state during the Second World War, become a slave to its patron during the Cold War-and scientists with it? The story of these three men, is fundamentally about loyalty-to the country, to science, and to each other-and about the wrenching choices that had to be made when these allegiances came into conflict.
Gregg Herken gives us the behind-the-scenes account based upon a decade of research, interviews, and new documents. Brotherhood of the Bomb is a vital slice of American history told authoritatively-and grippingly-for the first time.

"The slums of Victorian London have provided the setting for countless tales of murder, intrigue, and dissipation, an urban landscape where Sherlock Holmes and mythologies of Jack the Ripper have had a field day. Donald Lewis' compelling book documents a person who, through desperately difficult work, sought not sensationalism but salvation. Joseph Oppenheimer, a converted German Jew, left a diary from his work with the London City Mission that is here quoted at illuminating length and also used for an informative account of Christian outreach to London's poor in the years shortly before William Booth's more famous mission launched the Salvation Army. Expert use of the diary and expert provision of historical context makes this a testimony to persistent Christian dedication and also the transforming power of the Gospel. Oppenheimer himself grew discouraged about the lack of results from his patient visiting, counseling, and witnessing, but from his historical distance what he accomplished shines like a beacon of hope." --Mark Noll, Francis A. McAnaney Professor of History (Emeritus), University of Notre Dame
"Donald Lewis, the scholar who knows more than anybody else about the London City Mission in the nineteenth century, has edited a journal kept by one of its agents, a German-Jewish convert named Joseph Oppenheimer, during 1861-1862. The full transcription records Oppenheimer's ministry among the very poor of the British capital, and eight chapters analyze aspects of his efforts in pioneer evangelism. Here is a source that vividly illuminates the work of Victorian Evangelicals in the growing cities of the age." --Professor David W. Bebbington, University of Stirling, Scotland
"I love the fact that Joseph Opennheimer's diary has not till now] seen the light of day and that it now comes with a commentary. This really opens it up to use by undergraduates." --Professor David Green, Department of Geography, King's College, London

Описание: A striking look at the Jewish rite-and at American Jews in all their diversity. Thirteen years ago, Mark Oppenheimer set off throughout the United States to see how the bar and bat mitzvah were practiced in different regions, by different boys and girls, from different streams of Judaism. That book, "Thirteen and a Day," is now being republished on its thirteenth birthday-its bar mitzvah-as "The Bar Mitzvah Crasher."Since its emergence here a century ago, the bar or bat mitzvah has become a distinctively American rite of passage, so much so that, in certain suburbs today, gentile families throw parties for their thirteen-year-olds, lest they feel left out. How did this come about? To answer that question, Mark Oppenheimer set out across America to attend the most distinctive b'nai mitzvah he could find. "The Bar Mitzvah Crasher" is the story of what he found-an altogether fresh look at American Jews today. Beginning with the image of a party of gaudy excess, Oppenheimer then goes farther afield in the great tradition of literary journalists from Joseph Mitchell to Ian Frazier and Susan Orlean. The two dozen Jews of Fayetteville, Arkansas, he finds, open their synagogue to eccentrics from all over the Ozarks. Those of Lake Charles, Louisiana, pass the hat to cover the expenses of their potluck dinner. And in Anchorage, Alaska, a Hasidic boy's bar mitzvah in a snowed-in hotel becomes a striking image of how far the Jewish diaspora has spread. In these people's company, privy to their soul-searching about their religious heritage, Oppenheimer finds that the day is full of wonder and significance. Part travelogue, part spiritual voyage, "The Bar Mitzvah Crasher" is a lyrical, entertaining, even revelatory look at American Jews and one of the most original books of literary journalism to appear in some years.

The true story of the government conspiracy to bring down J. Robert Oppenheimer, America's most famous scientist.
On April 12, 1954, the nation was astonished to learn that J. Robert Oppenheimer was facing charges of violating national security. Could the director of the Manhattan Project, the visionary who led the effort to build the atom bomb, really be a traitor? In this riveting book, bestselling author Priscilla J. McMillan draws on newly declassified U.S. government documents and materials from Russia, as well as in-depth interviews, to expose for the first time the conspiracy that destroyed one of America's most illustrious scientists.
McMillan recreates the fraught years from 1949 to 1955 when Oppenheimer and a group of liberal scientists tried to head off the cabal of hard-line air force officials, anti-Communist politicians, and rival scientists, including physicist Edward Teller, who were trying to seize control of U.S. policy and build ever more deadly nuclear weapons. Retelling the story of Oppenheimer's trial, which took place in utmost secrecy, she describes how the government made up its own rules and violated many protections of the rule of law. She also argues that the effort to discredit Oppenheimer, occurring at the height of the McCarthy era and sanctioned by a misinformed President Eisenhower, was a watershed in the Cold War, poisoning American politics for decades and creating dangers that haunt us today.
A chilling tale of McCarthy-era machinations, this groundbreaking page-turner rewrites the history of the Cold War.
In this book readers will find not only a heart-filled rendering of the gentle ways young children have been traditionally raised and educated, but also cutting edge research that supports these practices. With love as the foundation, and through the neural tapestry created by joyful movement, music, art, stories, and play, we feed and bathe the brain of the young child. These deep connections with life are woven together during childhood to become the wholeness we call "I." Each chapter offers ideas for bringing this new science and these time-honored ways into the home and classroom. Parents, educators, and everyone who has ever loved and cared for a child will find research, humor, wisdom, and a new paradigm that marries ageless wisdom with the new science of the human brain and heart.
