American Prometheus (English, Paperback) By Kai Bird & Martin J. Sherwin

American Prometheus is the definitive, Pulitzer-winning biography of J. Robert Oppenheimer—“the father of the atomic bomb.” Drawing from 25 years of research, thousands of archived documents, FBI files, and interviews, Kai Bird and Martin Sherwin vividly recount his rise, the Manhattan Project, and tragic fall during the McCarthy era. Lauded as “a riveting account of one of history’s most essential and paradoxical figures” by Christopher Nolan, and described as “a tour de force” by the Los Angeles Times, this rich blend of biography and history earned acclaim from Newsweek, The Boston Globe, and The New York Times.
