Märksõnad:
Traces the work of a team of fringe scientists who are working on "isomer weapon" technology--a grenade-sized bomb capable of atomic-level destruction--in an account that discusses the exorbitant amounts of money allocated by the Pentagon for its development and the scientific battle being waged between military officials and top nuclear scientists.
