Unmaking the Bomb is an incredible read."--Shiloh Krupar, Provost's Distinguished Associate Professor, Georgetown University "Unmaking the Bomb is a multimodal text: part ethnography, part history of science, part memoir.

Cram's work is much more than an environmental justice study of nuclear damage. It is a critical assessment of how a society produces monumental forms of harm and then crafts itself to normalize those dangers as essential and potentially even banal. The overall effect is extraordinarily powerful and important. This is no small accomplishment."--Joseph P. Masco, Professor of Anthropology and of the Social Sciences, University of Chicago
