Read Dark Sun and the other Rhodes book on Nuclear Energy, both great reads,thanks for the other recommendation, will get it ASP.Still would love to read the Barroso book though.

Hehe.Always interested in how things work-from microwave ovens to Hydrogen Bombs-I'm just a nosey little git.:biggrin:

I believe Barroso is a Brazilian scientist and may have been involved in Brazils attempts to develop nuclear weapons during the Military Dictatorships of the 1970s-80s.

Thanks for replying.Well it looks like Barroso is the best book on the subject.Shame I can't read Portugese and even if I could the book is VERY expensive (circa $200 inc. shipping) from Brazil.Thanks anyway.

Do you have Arkins full name please?

Which country is that?

OK so it appears nobody knows of an English Translation of this book.Could someone please recommend a similar book? Basically a text that goes into detail of the Physics and technicalities of Nuclear devices.

Hi there.Does anybody know where I can get an English copy of the book “A Física dos Explosivos Nucleares” by Dalton G. Barroso?The original is in Portuguese and its title translates as “The Physics of Nuclear Explosives” .
