Very good.…First Printing, and scarce, with OCLC recording copies in only four libraries (Cornell, UC Berkeley, Smithsonian, American Institute of Physics). Hans Bethe helped develop both the atom bomb and the hydrogen bomb, and received the Nobel Prize in 1967 for his work in the theory of stellar nucleosynthesis; Robert Marshak, one of Bethe's doctoral students, came up with the explanation for how heat-driven radiation waves (Marshak waves) work in extremely high temperatures. Both Bethe and Marshak were members of the Manhattan Project, the top-secret government program at Los Alamos that designed and built the first atomic weapons during World War II. After the war both men continued their association with the Los Alamos National Laboratory, participating in the so-called "Los Alamos University," a program of technical lectures given as semi-academic courses to junior laboratory personnel. .
