Uranium is an abundant element in the earth's crust, an always-decaying mineral that holds the power to end all life on the planet. This is its fundamental paradox, and the story of this unstable rock is also a fascinating window into the valor, greed, genius, and folly of humanity. Uranium takes us into the heart of the nuclear age and exposes one of the primary national security threats of the twenty-first century. Book jacket.
