A reprinting of a series of lectures on science history (mainly physics) and science in the community given over the B.B.C. in 1953 by Professor Oppenheimer. Not exciting reading, but clear and aimed at the interested layman, and useful fodder for a term paper I wrote in college. Oppenheimer has a unique perspective on the topic, having been the director of the Los Alamos laboratory where the first atomic bombs were made. (
