Josephson Narrator: Leighton Pugh Format: mp3 Length: 4 hrs and 37 mins Release date: 12-22-22 Ratings: 3 out of 5 stars, 1 rating Genres: History Publisher's Summary: Nuclear Russia probes the juncture of history of science and technology, political and cultural history, and environmental history. It considers the atom in Russian society as a reflection of Leninist technological utopianism, Cold War imperatives, scientific hubris, public acceptance, and a state desire to conquer nature. Furthermore the audiobook examines the vital – and perhaps unexpected – significance of ethnicity and gender in nuclear history by looking at how Kazakhs and Nenets lost their homelands and their health in Russia in the wake of nuclear testing.
