Reviews

In this thoroughly researched account, Oatsvall challenges readers to rethink many of their assumptions about the relationship between nuclear weaponry and the natural environment. Attentive to detail and framed with appropriate nuance, Atomic Environments demonstrates convincingly that environmental knowledge was a key driver of the decision-making process for policymakers in the early years of the nuclear age. --Edwin Martini, coeditor of At War: The Military and American Culture in the Twentieth Century and Beyond
