"Nuclear weapons, since their conception, have been the subject of secrecy. In the months after the dropping of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the American scientific establishment, the American government, and the American public all wrestled with what was called the "problem of secrecy," wondering not only whether secrecy was appropriate and effective as a means of controlling this new technology but also whether it was compatible with the country's core values. Out of a messy context of propaganda, confusion, spy scares, and the grave counsel of competing groups of scientists, what historian Alex Wellerstein calls a "new regime of secrecy" was put into place. It was unlike any other previous or since. Nuclear secrets were given their own unique legal designation in American law ("restricted data"), one that operates differently than all other forms of national security classification and exists to this day. Drawing on massive amounts of declassified files, including records released by the government for the first time at the author's request, Restricted Data is a narrative account of nuclear secrecy and the tensions and uncertainty that built as the Cold War continued. In the US, both science and democracy are pitted against nuclear secrecy, and this makes its history uniquely compelling and timely"--

Strange things happen when you make friends with Evil. "Masterfully told, beautifully written, dreamlike world to submerge your senses." - Amazon Review Princess Serap is the only frail human seeking courtship in Qaf, a magical world full of long-lived djinn. Sure that her shorter life span is the reason her romances fail, Serap runs away from the palace to find the secret to eternal life said to be held by the terrifying Immortal Killer. But if there's a forbidden box, Serap can't help but open it--and in the end, her hapless curiosity enrages the very one she sought for help. Locked in a dungeon by a cruel captor, a parade of haunted house guests and embodied secrets threaten her mortality more than living ever did. Trapped where logic is lost, fantastical magic runs amuck, and Evil speaks in the ghastly dark, her innocent naivety and desire to be loved may be the only thing that could save her. The problem? The Immortal Killer thinks so, too . . . **** Haunting of the Immortal Killer is a sweet, first love, clean fantasy romance (romantacy) that takes place in medieval historical Spain. GoodRead and Amazon Reviews "... wrapped in magic, wonder, and a touch of horror." "Trust me, it's more than just another fantasy story—it's an adventure of a lifetime. Two thumbs way up!"

During his career Stanley Kubrick became renowned for undertaking lengthy and exhaustive research prior to the production of all his films. In the lead-up to what would eventually become Dr. Strangelove (1964), Kubrick read voraciously and amassed a substantial library of works on the nuclear age. With rare access to unpublished materials, this volume assesses Dr. Strangelove's narrative accuracy, consulting recently declassified Cold War nuclear-policy documents alongside interviews with Kubrick's collaborators. It focuses on the myths surrounding the film, such as the origins and transformation of the "straight" script versions into what Kubrick termed a "nightmare comedy." It assesses Kubrick's account of collaborating with the writers Peter George and Terry Southern against their individual remembrances and material archives. Peter Sellers's improvisations are compared to written scripts and daily continuity reports, showcasing the actor's brilliant talent and variations.
