Norris Bradbury, 1909-1997 (The Los Alamos Story, No. 5) (The Los Alamos Story, Monograph 5)

Norris Bradbury's energy, personality, and casual style combined with keen insight and scientific know-how to define his leadership of the Los Alamos Laboratory for twenty five years, despite his intentions to fill the position for only a six month interim term at war's end. He guided the laboratory's growth and established it as the premier research facility for nuclear energy and its applications. Bradbury's story is told by Virginia Ebinger with fond respect for the man who took on a challenge of global importance.
