I first read this book as a teenager (My mom's library shelves) and it stuck with me for a long time. I was amazed by the power one man held over others. Rereading it now, 50 years later, I am amazed that I grasped the power of the book at such a young age. It's a treatment of Oppenheimer and the Manhattan Project. And after research, it appears that Oppenheimer "named" Chevalier, and as a result, Chevalier lost everything. The scientists of the Manhattan Project have always fascinated me, their brilliance, and their moral compass that surfaced at the end.
