Moderated by Joseph Geiger. Michael B. Stoff begins by briefly explaining the city of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. He then talks about the effects of the bomb, "little boy" and "fat man", in detail. He presents numerical data on the deaths that occurred due to the bomb. Stoff then presents a historical melodrama in four acts – Act 1: The Decision to Build the Bomb, Act 2: The Decision to Use the Bomb, Act 3: The Decision to Keep the Atomic Secret, Act 4: Hiroshima and the Holocaust – to see how the bomb set the past and shaped the future.
