This is reported to be one of three memoirs by Candida Lawrence. Born around 1940 and a child of the nuclear test era by virtue of the work of her physicist first husband and her own early career, Lawrence was subjected to low level radiation. The book chronicles her health and reproductive issues amid a deserved growing awareness and paranoia of radioactive materials. She is a self-described loner of sorts and admits to some lack of self-esteem as a wife and a person.
