MILITARY & POLITICAL CONSEQUENCES OF ATOMIC ENERGY
by Professor P M S Blackett

Professor Blackett was a member of the Advisory Committee on Atomic Energy set up by the British Government in 1945 to help formulate a policy in relation to atomic energy. His views gradually diverged from those of his colleagues and he became convinced that Britain and the US were following policies that were militarily unrealistic and politically disastrous. The Advisory Committee was abolished and Blackett wrote this book to clarify his own views.
