The Plutonium Files: America's Secret Medical Experiments in the Cold War
Eileen Welsome
“It is hard to say which is more impressive about this book, the research or the writing.… between the well-crafted prologue and the powerful epilogue is a remarkable tale in five parts … any of which could stand alone as a story well worth reading.” — The San Diego Union-Tribune
“A disturbing look at what happens when scientists lose touch with their humanity in the single-minded pursuit of scientific advancement … the power of this book … derives from [Welsome’s] relentless pursuit of the names, forms, and personal histories of the victims of nuclear science.” — Deborah Nelson, The Washington Post Book World
“A fierce expose of governmental duplicity and dangerous science … The literature on the official crimes of the Cold War is large and growing. Welsome’s stunning book adds much to that literature, and it makes for sobering reading.” — Kirkus Reviews
