Description:
This is a comprehensive study of one of the most startling examples of dollar diplomacy--the effort of the United States and the United Kingdom to monopolize the free world's supply of uranium and thorium during and immediately following World War II.
Originally published in 1986. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
