C. has just reached our hands. It is entitled “Survival Under Atomic Attack” and deals frankly with that problem. Realistically, it describes nuclear fission as just another way of causing an explosion. Although it does not attempt to minimize the destruction power of the A Bomb, it does point out that atomic weapons, like all others, have definite limitations—and that, once those limitations are known, equally definite precautions can be taken. Immediately following the attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, a wave of horror swept over the world.
