Description:

This is a complete record of human experimentation using radioactive substances. This project had been carried out in the United States as part of the Manhattan Project for 50 years after World War II. Eileen Welsome, an American journalist, and some other reporters for the Albuquerque Tribune, NM, continued persistent news gathering to disclose the facts. Welsome won the Pulitzer Prize for her media coverage of this topic.
