As a secret city during the Manhattan Project, Oak Ridge enriched the uranium that powered Little Boy, the bomb that destroyed Hiroshima. The city was a major nuclear production site throughout the Cold War, adding something to each and every bomb in the United States arsenal. Even today, Oak Ridge contains the world's largest supply of fissionable uranium. The granddaughter of an atomic courier, Lindsey A. Freeman turns a critical yet nostalgic eye to the place where her family was sent as part of a covert government plan. Theirs was a city devoted to nuclear science within a larger America obsessed with its nuclear prowess. Through memories, mysterious photographs, and uncanny childhood toys, she shows how Reagan-era politics and nuclear culture irradiated the late twentieth century. Alternately tender and alarming, her book takes a Geiger counter to recent history, reading the half-life of the atomic past as it resonates in our tense nuclear present. 606 $aNuclear weapons industry$zTennessee$zOak Ridge$xHistory$vAnecdotes 607 $aOak Ridge (Tenn.)$vBiography$vAnecdotes 607 $aOak Ridge (Tenn.)$xSocial life and customs$vAnecdotes 610 $a1980s. 610 $aCold War. 610 $aOak Ridge. 610 $aTennessee. 610 $aatomic. 610 $amemory. 610 $anostalgia. 610 $anuclear. 610 $asecrecy. 610 $atwentieth century. 615 0$aNuclear weapons industry$xHistory 676 $a976.8/73 700 $aFreeman$b Lindsey A.$01126671 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910828127503321 996 $aThis atom bomb in me$93919505 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01482nas 2200481- 450 001 9910397955803321 005 20240204213017.0 011 $a2683-4162 035 $a(OCoLC)1159124401 035 $a(CKB)4100000011255884 035 $a(CONSER)--2020256386 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000011255884 100 $a20200608a19659999 --- - 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aAnali Ekonomskog fakulteta u Subotici 210 1$aSubotica :$cUniverzitet u Novom Sadu - Ekonomski fakultet, Subotica 215 $a1 online resource 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 311 08$a0350-2120 517 1 $aAnnals of the Faculty of Economics in Subotica 517 3 $aAnali 531 0 $aAnal Ekon. fak.
