Enjoy For Free The Cloud Chamber Compiled And Edited By Clare George Presented In Multimedia Book
This is a first novel I picked up on a whim in a bargain bookshop, It deals with nuclear physicists at the Cavendish Laboratory in Cambridge in thes and the subsequent impact of the Manhattan Project on them.
I found it very interesting, but the author tackles too many themes, there are too many pointofview characters and there are some very clumsy information dumps.
Nonetheless, I learned quite a bit and found it an engaging enough read, Picked this up for free! at SMSA LibraryJunein Pitt St whilst there for a conference.
They are giving away surplus books!
A good account of British involvement in the development of the atomic bomb.
I found a few characters unbelievable, In particular, the wife of the main character was too far ahead of her time, Be a pacifist. .
