During World War II these women worked on\u2014and in some cases initiated\u2014the development of the atomic bomb, taking starring roles in one of history\u2019s most infamous scientific feats. But despite their involvement, critical to the project\u2019s success, many of them weren\u2019t made fully aware of the consequences.<br \/> \u00a0<br \/> This book explores not just the steps toward the creation of a successful nuclear bomb, but also the moral implications of such an invention\u2014and how female scientists of the time grappled with the fallout. In an eye-opening revisionist history, this book celebrates the diversity and complexity of a watershed moment in history.<br \/> \u00a0<br \/> The atomic women you\u2019ll learn about include: Lise Meitner and Ir\u00e8ne Joliot-Curie (daughter of Marie Curie), who laid the groundwork for the Manhattan Project from Europe Elizabeth Rona, the foremost expert in plutonium, who gave rise to &#8220;Fat Man&#8221; and &#8220;Little Boy,&#8221; the bombs dropped over Japan Leona Woods, Elizabeth Graves, and Joan Hinton, who were inspired by European scientific ideals but carved their own
