RE: item on ebay

I've read this.  Compton had a different opinion of his involvement in the
project than anyone else has.  I'd recommend "The Making of the Atomic Bomb"
by Richard Rhodes -- it's much more objective.

There's an interesting book on ebay today. Here's part of the description:

"Atomic Quest, a personal narrative by Arthur Compton, early pioneer in the 
search and development of atomic power and the atom bomb. This hard cover 
book was published in 1956 by Oxford University Press, with dust jacket, 
and has 369 pages. This is interesting reading for a student of history or 
anyone in, or interested in, nuclear science, WWII and the bomb, or the 
cold war."

You can check it out at
