The Hand of God: From Oppenheimer to Hypersonics by Paul McCarthy – Review by Lucy Machard
The Hand of God: From Oppenheimer to Hypersonics – A Crash Course on Nuclear Weapons and Humankind’s Most Dangerous Game by Paul McCarthy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
So I’ve always had a love for the Manhattan project for WWII, and I JUMPED at the chance to read this book when I saw it. It’s obvious the author knows what he’s talking about and he’s very clear and concise about everything that he writes. It is a crash course in the physics and the department of nuclear research and energy sources, but the way it’s written makes a lot of sense to me. I very much enjoyed this book and I’m looking forward to checking out some more of his works!
