Fascinating analysis of how two U.S.-trained Chinese scientists, Tsien Hsue-shen & Chao Chung-yao, were driven out of the U.S. by Hoover's FBI during the McCarthy period, only to flee to China where they subsequently developed China's strategic missile capacity. Ironically, both men had formerly had high security clearance in the U.S., and both were seeking U.S. citizenship and permanent residence at the time of their expulsion.

WAR AND PEACE IN THE NUCLEAR AGE. Complete series of 13 videotapes, in original pictorial boxes, comprising the 13-part
series broadcast by Public Television in 1989. Santa Barbara: Annenberg/CPB Collection. 1989. U264 .W371 1989
"The series traces the development of nuclear weapons and evolution of nuclear strategy in the context of international and domestic politics." See entry under Newhouse, this section, for the accompanying text volume. The present reviewer found both the book and the video series factually accurate but deficient in its presentation of contemporary dissenting views (for example, the Emergency Committee of Atomic Scientists receives no mention at all) and in its critical analysis of the underlying causes behind the events chronicled.
