08 Sep / Shockwave: Countdown to Hiroshima by Stephen Walker [in AsianWeek]
Marking the 60th anniversary of that fateful August 6th morning comes a richly detailed examination of the three weeks that led up to the Hiroshima bombing. While it reads like a riveting novel – scientists, politicians, military on both sides, tragic locals – knowing it’s history makes this title all the more haunting.
