from Vintage
Price: $6.95

Customer Review:
There are works of fiction and nonfiction that transcend their genres. This is one of those works, one that should be required reading for high school students, or, at the very least, for college students, if it isn't already.

from The University of North Carolina Press
Price: $16.16

Customer Review:
Prompt and Utter Destruction carefully builds arguments in favor of the decision to use the bomb based upon correspondence, interviews, etc., then tries to demolish them with speculative opinion. Perhaps this was done in the interest of objectivity; however, the result is a difficult to read,... more info

5.Hiroshima (Apple Paperbacks)Hiroshima (Apple Paperbacks)
from Scholastic Paperbacks
Price: $4.99

Customer Review:
I used this very simple book to inject a little burst of "something" different into my Chemistry class. I use it when I cover Nuclear Chemistry. It describes very simply the vocabulary words for an atomic bomb and the plus is that the students get to learn about the point of view of a young girl.... more info

from Back Bay Books
Price: $14.99

Customer Review:
I totally disagree with Professor Takaki. I am a Japanese American like he is and I was subjected to racial discrimination just after Pearl Harbor perhaps not as much as he had (if he was born then) because I lived in Hawaii and not sent to internment camp. Nevertheless I felt the sting of... more info

I was expecting a little more than what I received. It's not much of a book. There are few pages and does not include much information. I could not use it for my classroom.
