The Damage by the Atomic Bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki and Their After-Effects
Published by The Committee For The Completion Of Materials On The Damage By The Atomic Bombs In Hiroshima and Nagasaki 1979
With Original Slipcase & Rice Paper Dustjacket - 1st Edition

" Published in Japan in 1979, The Damage by the Atomic Bombings in Hiroshima and Nagasaki and Their After-Effects is a substantial and authoritative record of the destruction caused by the atomic bombs dropped on the two cities in August 1945. Compiled by a specialist committee established by the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the work brings together decades of surviving evidence, official records and scientific research to document both the immediate catastrophe and its enduring consequences.

The extensively illustrated volume examines the bombings from numerous perspectives, including the explosions and resulting firestorms, damage to buildings and infrastructure, casualties, radiation exposure, medical effects and the experiences of survivors. Historical photographs are accompanied by maps, diagrams, tables and other technical material, presenting a detailed study of the physical, environmental and human devastation. Particular attention is given to the long-term after-effects of radiation and the continuing medical and social burdens borne by the hibakusha.

Issued in Japanese by Iwanami Shoten, this important first-edition reference work represents an extraordinary act of historical preservation by the two cities most directly affected by atomic warfare. Copies are seldom encountered outside Japan, particularly retaining both the delicate original rice-paper dustjacket and protective slipcase. A rare and deeply significant primary reference for collectors and researchers of the Second World War, Japanese history, nuclear warfare, medical history and peace studies. "
