In 1943, a young widow named Dorothy McKibbin was hired as Oppenheimer's assistant to run the Santa Fe office of the secret weapons laboratory at Los Alamos. At 109 East Palace Avenue, she greeted newly arrived scientists, reminding them to use their aliases while in town and never to identify themselves as physicists. Conant, whose grandfather was a Manhattan Project administrator, mostly sidesteps political issues to focus on the absurdities of day-to-day life at the desert lab. [New Yorker]

A fine, fully fleshed portrait of Franklin Roosevelt during his final years, in his own words. . . . The author does a fine historical service in allowing FDR's rich, wise, moving words to emerge here, giving an illuminating portrait of a president in time of unprecedented world crisis. An excellent resource that hews to the president's words as reflecting or obscuring his actions. [Kirkus Reviews]
