Atomic culture

Description:

"In Atomic Culture, eight scholars examine the range of culture expressions of atomic energy from the 1940s to the early twenty-first century, including comic books, nuclear landscapes, mushroom-cloud postcards, the Los Alamos suburbs uranium-themed board games, future atomic waste facilities, and atomic-themed films such as Dr. Strangelove and The Atomic Kid." "Atomic Culture opens new doors into the field by providing a substantive, and historically based consideration of the topic that will appeal to students and scholars of the Atomic Age as well as general readers."--Jacket.
