Nuclear Generations Book II: Duo Filii

About the Book

This book resumes the story of two Manhattan Project scientists after Hiroshima and their quest to render all future nuclear warheads defunct once they have completed twenty years in the stockpile. They succeed but only by engaging with the new Atomic Energy Commission, the Truman Administration, and master spy Klaus Fuchs. Ultimately President Obama must deal with the dilemma of a nation without nukes, while trying to prevent one from going bang in his backyard.

About the Author

A native of Denver, Dennis Floyd attended the Colorado School of Mines in Golden where he earned undergraduate, MS, and PhD degrees in the field of Metallurgical Engineering. His knowledge of nuclear weapons technology stems from a 19-year career at the former Rocky Flats Plant near Denver where he first performed and later managed metallurgical research and development. Dr. Floyd later co-founded a company that still recycles nuclear weapons materials in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. He also founded a company that helped decontaminate and decommission the former Rocky Flats Plant.
