Description:
"Lowen studies one particular case, carefully and with much new information, then suggests a general interpretation that is more penetrating than anything we have had before on the subject."--Spencer R. Weart, author of "Nuclear Fear"
"The scholarship is superior; Lowen has been both imaginative and rigorous. She deals with a place limited in size but with problems that are not limited, and she is able to show the connections between the specific and the general."--Sigmund Diamond, author of "Compromised Campus"
