This book has many strong points. I loved the subject matter; not the usual how-the-bomb-was-made stuff. The writing was crisp and the pacing was great; there was no belabouring a point here or getting mired in the details. The science was well-explained and I loved the news bites at the start of several chapters, giving more global context to the events. Overall, this was a great read. Thank you to Netgalley and Michigan State University Press for the advance reader copy.
