Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was offered an extremely attractive assignment overseas in mid-September, 1942. I was to be placed in charge of the Army's part of the atomic effort. I was skeptical, but it took me several weeks to realize how overoptimistic an outlook Styer had presented. #2 I was brought into the picture when research on the uses of atomic energy was already underway. The American-born scientists, in the main, did not have as much awareness of the danger of the situation as did their foreign-born colleagues. #3 The American and British attempt to achieve international censorship of information relating to atomic energy was largely successful, though they were hindered by the refusal of Joliot-Curie to participate. #4 In November 1941, Bush decided that the uranium project was growing to be of such importance that it should be outside of NDRC control. It was placed directly under the Office of Scientific Research and Development, of which NDRC was a part.
