    The race to develop the atomic bomb had begun around the 1940's. World War II was still taking place, and its creation would change the game of war forever. Whoever could create it first would have the power to threaten to destroy entire regions and roll over their enemies. The information that was found during research was vital, and worth so much. Spies at the time were playing a very dangerous game because of the seriousness of the information they were giving away. A few were arrested and put in jail for years, one of them being Klaus Fuchs, a Russian spy who was arguably the most damaging during the development of the Atomic Bomb in Britain and the United States.…

    HG Wells’ political commentary of late Victorian England critiques his society and its structure through the exaggeration of humanity’s faults in a dystopia rather than correcting those faults in a utopia. In the initial depiction of the future society as a utopia, the dystopia becomes ambitious similar to Le Guin’s The Dispossessed and as such demonstrates a subversion to the genre. Wells suggests that current society change its ways lest it end up passive, lazy and unintelligent like the Eloi, terrified of an underground race of Morlocks. The Eloi are a fundamental point of satire of Wells’ society, as in the Eloi there are critiques of Victorian decadence. The Time Traveller is immediately unimpressed and disappointed by the beautiful Eloi, as he states “I never met people more indolent or more easily fatigued.” He looks down upon them,…

    Science fiction and personal experiences aren’t the most compatible of things, but Ray Bradbury is most influenced by his past. His plots can be traced to a certain time period or event in his life. Some critics also denounce that some of Bradbury's stories are poor examples of the genre of science fiction because they allude so much to American history in the 20th century, thus missing the extraterrestrial and futuristic aspects the readers expect to encounter. The most recurring influences were his childhood experiences, his small-American hometown in Illinois, and various literary works and their authors.…

    The atomic bomb is the subject of much controversy. The original desire of the United States government when they dropped Little Boy and Fat Man on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was not, in fact, the one more commonly known: that the two nuclear devices dropped upon Hiroshima and Nagasaki were detonated with the intention of bringing an end to the war with Japan, but instead to intimidate the Soviet Union. The fact of Japan's imminent defeat, the undeniable truth that relations with Russia were deteriorating, and competition for the division of Europe prove this without question.…

    The atomic bomb is the subject of much controversy. Since its first detonation in 1945, the entire world has heard the aftershocks of that blast. Issues concerning Nuclear Weapons sparked the Cold War. We also have the atomic bomb to thank for our relative peace in this time due to the fear of Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD). The effects of the atomic bomb might not have been the exact effects that the United States was looking for when they dropped Little Boy and Fat Man on Hiroshima and Nagasaki respectively (Grant, 1998). The original desire of the United States government when they dropped Little Boy and Fat Man on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was not, in fact, the one more commonly known: that the two nuclear devices dropped upon Hiroshima and Nagasaki were detonated with the intention of bringing an end to the war with Japan, but instead to intimidate the Soviet Union.

    In Paul Russell’s passage from Thank God for the Atomic Bomb, he describes how the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were fully necessary. Russell agrees with President Truman’s decision to drop the atomic bombs because of the logical reasons. He gives examples that compare to the overall effect to America, and the positive things that happen to America such as the fact that the war would be over. I agree with Fussell’s opinion because the atomic bomb solved many problems in one shot, including and most importantly the war.…

    Paul Warfield Tibbets Jr., who dropped the atomic bomb died in 2007. However, the dispute of his action continues and the atomic bomb does not disappear with his death. The main argument people are talking about is that whether it is a right decision for the us to use atomic weapons on japan to end World War 2. It is true that the atomic bomb totally destroyed two cities of Japan, causing millions of civilians dead directly. Moreover, the nuclear radiation is still influencing the health of the people in the two cities. The whole world was shocked with the first use of nuclear power, including the US itself. Many humanrights groups strongly blame that this action is cruel and inhuman because they believe the war was held by the militarists not the civilians so that the innocent should not be responsible for the war. While the opponents think that the drop of bomb was right, since it ended the war much earlier, preventing more people from being murdered by the kamikaze Japanese soldiers and alarmed the world the danger of the using of the atomic bomb. That is the reason why no nuclear bomb has been dropped after then though most countries own nuclear weapons. According to the dropping of the atomic bomb helped to end the war quickly after the surrender of Germany and Italy, the main fascist powers in Europe, saved the Asian countries which were still fighting with the stubborn Japan and, to some extent, had kept the world at peace since then, especially in the fields of using nuclear weapons, the US made the right decision to use atomic weapons on Japan.…
