Description

No Place To Hide

They Defied An Atom Bomb - No Place to Hide is a 1948 book by David J. Bradley, a Harvard Medical School graduate. It is an autobiographical account of his work in the Radiological Safety Section in the Pacific in the aftermath of the Bikini atomic bomb tests, Operation Crossroads. The book alerted the world to the dangers of radioactive fallout from nuclear weapon explosions.

The book is divided into two parts. The first part describes Bradley's experiences at Bikini Atoll, where he was responsible for monitoring the health of the people who had been evacuated from the atoll and for collecting data on the effects of the atomic bomb tests. The second part of the book discusses the dangers of radioactive fallout and the need for international cooperation to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons.

No Place to Hide was a groundbreaking book that helped to raise awareness of the dangers of nuclear weapons. It was also a personal account of the human cost of nuclear testing. The book was praised by critics and was a bestseller. It has been translated into several languages and is still in print today.
