Críticas

"This anthology will be a wake-up call for those who fail to learn the lessons of history."--Library Journal"A harrowing collection." --Booklist"That eerie claustrophobia, the fry-in-a-flash fear that kept Uncle Sam's kids' heads between their knees as the sirens wailed, runs all the way through the 24 essays in Learning to Glow--a collection of intimate, anecdotal comebacks to the Atomic Energy Commission's cynical reassurances that the split atom is our friend." --Rain Taxi
