Seller's Description:
Fine in Fine- jacket. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. 366 pages, including a ten page bibliography. Proving Ground is an interim report on the search for the biological effects of radioactive fallout in the Pacific. It is based upon studies which were begun with the testing of atomic bombs in 1946 in Operation Crossroads and have continued during and since the United States nuclear test programs at Bikini and Eniwetok....Proving Grounds is history. It is also an unusual experiment in scientific interpretation and synthesis. Because emphasis is upon biology and upon investigations of radioactivity in the natural environment, it concerns questions that are important to scientists, laymen, and students of the critical middle years of our century." FINE HARDCOVER, FINE-DUST JACKET.
