The purpose of this book is to profile, chapter by chapter, each of the 18 Nobel laureates who contributed to the laboratory’s wartime efforts. Through narrative, nonfiction profiles with fascinating historical photos and documents, readers will learn who these scientists were, what they accomplished, and why it mattered. The goal of this book is to educate readers by creating a published chronicle of this important history based on documents and photographs that are a part of the Los Alamos National Laboratory’s National Security Research Center. These 18 scientists have two things in common: their wartime work at Los Alamos and their Nobel Prizes. For the first time ever, both are presented as one story.
