This book gives a concise, fast-paced account of all major aspects of the Manhattan Project at a level accessible to an undergraduate college or advanced high-school student familiar with some basic concepts of energy, atomic structure, and isotopes. The text describes the underlying scientific discoveries that made nuclear weapons possible, how the Project was organized, the daunting challenges faced and overcome, the dramatic Trinity test carried out in the desert of southern New Mexico in July, 1945, and the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
